Paperback / Hardback

“Know your own happiness. You want nothing but patience – or give it a more fascinating name, call it hope.”

Does one love from the heart or see the merit of someone’s love through their mind?

Elinor and Marianne Dashwood are two sisters navigating the challenges of romance and societal expectations. Elinor represents the ‘sense’, personifying rationality and practicality. Marianne, on the other hand is governed by her emotions and spontaneity. The sisters’ differing approaches to life and love make a heartwarming narrative through which the story explores relationships, love, family and the idea of self.

Elinor’s practicality is tested as she conceals her true feelings for Edward Ferrars, while Marianne’s open-hearted sensibility leads her into a passionate and potentially risky romance with the dashing John Willoughby.

Which will prove to be the best route to love, caution and mindfulness, or complete abandon and surrender to one’s feelings?
