To wish was to hope, and to hope was to expect.' Sense and Sensibility follows the contrasting lives of the Dashwood sisters—Elinor and Marianne Dashwood—each embodying a distinct approach to life. Elinor, the elder, is composed and measured, guarding her feelings for Edward Ferrars with quiet strength. Marianne, by contrast, is impulsive and romantic, swept away by the charms of the dashing John Willoughby. As they navigate heartbreak, betrayal, and societal pressures, their choices reveal the rewards and consequences of both self-restraint and emotional abandon. Through the sisters’ intertwined journeys, Austen explores the tension between head and heart. Set against the rigid social codes of 19th-century England, the novel is as much a critique of class and convention as it is a moving story of personal growth. A brilliant blend of wit and wisdom, Sense and Sensibility continues to resonate for its nuanced portrayal of love, loss, and the resilience of women bound by family and hope.
