Why read it
It suits anyone wondering how to love deeply without losing judgment, and how to suffer without making others suffer. Elinor is an admirable portrait of self-command and family loyalty. A gentle read that leaves you thinking about the value of temperance.
Summary
The Dashwood sisters, prudent Elinor and passionate Marianne, are left without fortune after their father's death and move to a modest cottage in Devon. There their hearts are tested in opposite ways: one keeps her feelings quiet, the other shows everything. Jane Austen's first published novel.
Quotes
The more I know of the world, the more am I convinced that I shall never see a man whom I can really love.
Know your own happiness. You want nothing but patience—or give it a more fascinating name, call it hope.
It is not time or opportunity that is to determine intimacy;—it is disposition alone.
