Features: "Sense and Sensibility" is the first novel of the renowned British female writer Jane Austen. Elinor and Marianne, the two sisters, come from a respectable English gentry family. The elder sister is good at controlling her emotions with reason, while the younger sister often acts impulsively with emotions. Therefore, when they encounter setbacks in love, they react differently. This book and the author's other masterpiece, "Pride and Prejudice," are considered sister novels, both narrating the stories of unmarried girls' love and marriage with delicate brushwork and vivid dialogue, without the financial support of a wealthy dowry.
