A special edition featuring beautiful heritage wallpaper patterns from her own home in Hampshire, these collectable paperbacks are a must for all Jane Austen fans. From Macmillan Collector�_Ts Library; a series of stunning classics that make perfect gifts or a treat for any book lover. Two sisters of opposing temperament but who share the pangs of tragic love provide the subjects for Jane Austen�_Ts Sense and Sensibility. Elinor, practical and conventional, the epitome of sense, desires a man who is promised to another woman. Marianne, emotional and sentimental, the epitome of sensibility, loses her heart to a scoundrel who jilts her. A powerful drama of family life and growing up, Sense and Sensibility is at once a subtle comedy of manners and a striking critique of early nineteenth-century society. With original illustrations by the celebrated Hugh Thomson, this Macmillan Collector�_Ts Library edition also features bonus material by Jane Austen expert and curator of Jane Austen's House Sophie Reynolds.
