Sense and Sensibility

Kitap Hakkında

“Know your own happiness. You want nothing but patience—or give it a more fascinating name, call it hope.”Sense and Sensibility was published in 1811 by “a Lady”. The lady in question was Jane Austen, an English writer who is known for hericonic romantic literature even after years of her death. She wrote her first novel, Sense and Sensibility’s original draft around the age ofnineteen and published it later on.The story revolves around the Dashwood sisters, Elinor and Marianne, as they experience love and life with their differentpersonalities after their father’s death and the loss of their home. However, when the story continues, these differences betweenElinor and Marianne, sense and sensibility, rationality and feeling, start to seem much more vague.“Who would not spout the family teapot in order to talk with Keats for an hour about poetry, or with Jane Austen about the art offiction?”— Virginia Woolf“Jane Austen is the pinnacle to which all other authors aspire.”— J. K. Rowling   (Tanıtım Bülteninden)
