Waterstones Says

Charting the path of the three Dashwood sisters and their widowed mother who find themselves in new, financially diminished circumstances, Austen's witty and perceptive tale mines themes of romantic desire, societal hypocrisy and familial bonds to enduringly brilliant effect.

'The wit of Jane Austen has for partner the perfection of her taste' Virginia Woolf

Jane Austen's subtle and witty novel of secrets and suppression, lies and seduction, brilliantly portrays a world where rigid social convention clashes with the impulses of the heart. It tells the story of two very different sisters who find themselves thrown into an unkind world when their father dies. Marianne, wild and impulsive, falls dangerously in love, while Elinor suffers her own private heartbreak but conceals her true feelings, even from those closest to her.
