A special edition of Jane Austen’s elegant novel of family, society and manners to celebrate the 250th Anniversary of her birth.

A dazzling pocket-sized special anniversary edition bound in real cloth with foiling, sprayed edges and a ribbon marker to celebrate the 250th anniversary of Jane Austen’s birth. Part of a collectable series inspired by Jane Austen’s life and work.

Two sisters of opposing temperament but who share the pangs of tragic love provide the subjects for Jane Austen’s Sense and Sensibility. Elinor, practical and conventional, the epitome of sense, desires a man who is promised to another woman. Marianne, emotional and sentimental, the epitome of sensibility, loses her heart to a scoundrel who jilts her. A powerful drama of family life and growing up, Sense and Sensibility is at once a subtle comedy of manners and a striking critique of early nineteenth-century society.

With original illustrations by the celebrated Hugh Thomson and bonus material about the design.
