Life and love - Jane Austen's famous first novel

Set against the idyllic backdrop of 18th century Britain, Sense and Sensibility follows the contrasting fortunes of the impoverished Dashwood sisters - pragmatic Elinor and impulsive Marianne - as they navigate the treacherous waters of society to find love. Austen's wit and sharp social commentary illuminate the constraints of class and gender with a subtle irony, while at the same time her classic novel, written when she was only 20, remains a charming and delightful read to this day.-

About the author

Jane Austen (1775–1817) wurde in Steventon, Hampshire, geboren und wuchs als siebtes von acht Kindern im elterlichen Pfarrhaus auf. Ihre literarische Welt war die des englischen Landadels, deren sorgsam kaschierte Abgründe sie mit feiner Ironie entlarvte.
