Sense and Sensibility is the story of the two Dashwood sisters, who
embody the conflict between the oppressive nature of "civilized"
society and the human desire for romantic passion. Elinor is
cautious and unassuming about sentimental matters, while Marianne
is wild and passionate, falling hopelessly in love with Mr
Willoughby. But the lessons in life and romance see the two
characters develop and change, with sense and sensibility needing
to be compromised as a matter of survival. Austen's first published
work, the novel has been read as an autobiographical reflection of
her relationship with her own sister Cassandra. Against the
backdrop of a fragile social context, Jane Austen creates a
romantic masterpiece of raw and intense quality.
