Description

As Jane Austen's debut novel, "Sense and Sensibilty," romantic Marianne and level headed Elinor are immersed in a web of marriage and heartache that luckily turns out all right in the end, but not without plenty of humor and drama.Two sisters of opposing temperaments but who share the pangs of tragic love: Elinor, practical and conventional, is the epitome of sense; Marianne, emotional and sentimental, the embodiment of sensibility. When Mr. Dashwood dies, he must leave the bulk of his estate to the son by his first marriage, which leaves his second wife and three daughters (Elinor, Marianne, and Margaret) in straitened circumstances. They are taken in by a cousin, but their lack of fortune affects their marriageability. Their mutual suffering brings a closer understanding between the two sisters — and true love finally triumphs when sense gives way to sensibility and sensibility gives way to sense.
