Jane Austen's beloved classic Sense and Sensibility is beautifully presented in this collector's edition.

Elinor Dashwood is thoughtful, considerate, and calm. Her younger sister Marianne is emotional and wildly romantic. Both are looking for a husband, but neither Elinor's reason nor Marianne's passion can lead them to perfect happiness, as Marianne falls for an unscrupulous rascal and Elinor becomes attached to a man who's already engaged.

In Jane Austen's debut novel, published in 1811, the foibles of romance, human nature, and social manners are explored with great wit and irony. No wonder the novel has been beloved by readers for over 200 years.

This Deluxe Edition features:

  • An elegant faux-leather cover
  • Foil embossed designs
  • Unabridged text

Sure to be a cherished part of any bibliophile's collection, this gorgeous volume will be enjoyed for years to come.

About the Author

Jane Austen was born in 1775 at Steventon, Hampshire. She was the seventh child of the local rector and her life, by modern standards, was uneventful. In 1801 she moved with her parents to Bath but returned to Hampshire when her father died, settling in the village of Chawton. She remained there until 1817, when she moved to Winchester to be within easy reach of her doctor. She died that year, at age forty-one, and is buried in Winchester Cathedral, which also contains a plaque in honor of her memory. Four of her novels were published anonymously in her lifetime; two more, one of which was Persuasion, appeared posthumously.
