Official synopsis Publisher
A gorgeous, pocket-sized special edition of Jane Austen’s elegant novel of family, society and manners to celebrate the 250th Anniversary of her birth.
Two sisters of opposing temperament, but who share the pangs of tragic love, provide the subjects for Jane Austen’s Sense and Sensibility. Elinor, practical and conventional, the epitome of sense, desires a man who is promised to another woman. Marianne, emotional and sentimental, the epitome of sensibility, loses her heart to a scoundrel who jilts her. A powerful drama of family life and growing up, it is at once a subtle comedy of manners and a striking critique of early nineteenth-century society.
Bound in real cloth with foiled edges and a ribbon marker, this spectacular gift edition of Sense and Sensibility includes the original illustrations by Hugh Thomson, as well as bonus material about the cover design–inspired by Austen’s life and work.
