About this ebook

«Sense and Sensibility» is a novel by Jane Austen, and was her first published work when it appeared in 1811 under the pseudonym «A Lady». A work of romantic fiction, «Sense and Sensibility» is set in southwest England between 1792 and 1797, and portrays the life and loves of the Dashwood sisters, Elinor and Marianne. The novel follows the young ladies to their new home, a meagre cottage on a distant relative’s property, where they experience love, romance and heartbreak. The philosophical resolution of the novel is ambiguous: the reader must decide whether sense and sensibility have truly merged.

The «Animedia Company» e-book edition of the «Sense and Sensibility» is illustrated by Charles Edmund Brock and introducted by Henry Austin Dobson and Reginald Brimley Johnson.

Ratings and reviews

As usual, Jane Austen does an excellent job in drawing and maintaining all the different and lively characters. The story twists were rather astonishing and very unexpected. The story itself is quite long - could have been a bit shorter.

Intricate design of characters, the gentle pace of events , subtle twists as crisp and enjoyable as any of her works. A cherishable read for anyone fond of classic literature.
