Meer over het boek

<b>Life and love — Jane Austen's famous first novel</b> 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.— <ul> <li>From one of the most famous English authors ever: Jane Austen's first novel »Sense and Sensibility«!</li> <li>Austen's famous classic in a beautiful hardcover special edition embossed with silver foil</li> <li>»If a book is well written, I always find it too short.« Aus Sense and Sensibility</li> <li>»I wish, as well as everybody else, to be perfectly happy; but, like everybody else, it must be in my own way.« Sense and Sensibility</li></ul>
