HarperCollins is proud to present its new range of best-loved essential classics. Oh! Mama how spiritless how tame was Edwards manner in reading to us last night! I felt for my sister most severely. Yet she bore it with so much composure she seemed scarcely to notice it. I could hardly keep my seat. Spirited and impulsive Marianne Dashwood is the complete opposite to her controlled and sensible sister Elinor. When it comes to matters of the heart Marianne is passionate and romantic and soon falls for the charming but unreliable Mr Willoughby. Elinor in contrast copes stoically with the news that her love Edward Ferrars is promised to another. It is through their shared experiences of love that both sisters come to learn that the key to a successful match comes from finding the perfect mixture of rationality and feeling.
