Sense and Sensibility by Jane Austen
by Jane Austen
“I wish, as well as everybody else, to be perfectly happy; but, like everybody else, it must be in my own way.”
Published in 1811 and deeply beloved in the Victorian era, Jane Austen’s Sense and Sensibility continues to delight readers today. The novel follows the three Dashwood sisters – Elinor, Marianne, and Margaret – as they come of age. Having to move away from their childhood home with their widowed mother, the sisters experience love, romance, heartbreak, and reconciliation in very different ways. Austen’s book asks the question of the reader: Which is the more satisfying path through life – acting with sense, or with sensibility?
