This is a pocket-sized hardback of Jane Austen's timeless novel - the perfect gift for Austen fans everywhere. Where Elinor governs her emotions, Marianne unleashes hers - so when their father's untimely demise forces a stark change of circumstance for the two Dashwood sisters, they react quite differently. To add to the shock they are forced to accept diminished rank and the loss of their home. Now, with nothing but their respective prudence and passion to recommend them, how will each sister cope with falling in love in a society where marriage and status are one? And when Marianne follows her heart with abandon, can Elinor forget hers?

Reviews

'My favourite writer is Jane Austen and I've read all her books so many times I've lost count' J K Rowling 'Thanks to her sharp wit and strong female characters, Jane Austen's literature is still utterly relevant ... She's not just a writer, she's a cult, a brand and a cultural touchstone' STYLIST 'All Jane Austen's novels are classical comedies: they are about young couples finding their way toward a festive conclusion, namely marriage' Martin Amis
