Jane Austen is one of the most successful, beloved, and widely read authors of all time. Since the publication of her first novel "Sense and Sensibility" (1811), she has captivated her readers. Her novels about the entanglements of love continue to enchant millions of audiences around the world. "Sense and Sensibility" tells the story of the sisters Elinor and Marianne Dashwood, who could not be more different: the former embodies reason, self-control, and reserve, while the latter represents emotion, passion, and impulsiveness. Both encounter their great love—and both must painfully learn that happiness is not just a matter of feeling. "Sense and Sensibility" is a classic of world literature that has been successfully adapted into film multiple times.
