In Sense and Sensibility, the first of Jane Austen's novels to be published, Austen created a brilliant tragicomedy of flirtation and folly. Genteel dinner parties and romantic walks through luxuriant Devonshire draw two attractive sisters into the schemes of landed gentry set on "marrying up."

Either way, one fact has been historically proven: Sharing the world has never been humanity’s defining attribute . . .
