Sense and sensibility

Summary: Novel tells the story of the impoverished Dashwood sisters. The open and enthusiastic Marianne becomes infatuated with John Willoughby, who seems to be a romantic lover but is in reality an unscrupulous fortune hunter. He deserts her for an heiress, and she eventually makes a sensible marriage with Colonel Brandon, a staid and settled bachelor. Marianne's older sister, the prudent and discreet Elinor, is constant toward her lover, Edward Ferrars, and, after some distressing vicissitudes, marries him.
