Sense and Sensibility

Jane Austen • Boek • paperback

• Samenvatting
  'The more I know of the world, the more am I convinced that I shall never see a man whom I can really love. I require so much!'
  Marianne Dashwood wears her heart on her sleeve, and when she falls in love with the dashing but unsuitable John Willoughby she ignores her sister Elinor's warning that her impulsive behaviour leaves her open to gossip and innuendo. Meanwhile, Elinor, always sensitive to social convention, is struggling to conceal her own romantic disappointment, even from those closest to her. Through their parallel experience of love - and its threatened loss - the sisters learn that sense must mix with sensibility if they are to find personal happiness in a society where status and money govern the rules of love.
  This edition includes explanatory notes, textual variants between the first and second editions, and Tony Tanner's introduction to the original Penguin Classic edition.
  'These modern editions are to be strongly recommended for their scrupulous texts, informative notes and helpful introductions' BRIAN SOUTHAM, THE JANE AUSTEN SOCIETY
  Edited with an introduction and notes by ROS BALLASTER
