Sense and Sensibility by Jane Austen
Summary
This is a story of the English moneyed class and its eternal struggle for creating sense and sensibility in its world. A potential marriage prospect must make sense by bringing with it enough assets and income to permit the couple to continue to live in happy, idle leisure, complete with servants and a prestigious address. Provided one can find such a match among the eligible persons of the opposite sex, one then hopes for sensibility, or capacity for emotion, so that if love is not immediately to hand, it might come around later. And while these gentlemen and ladies make their hopeful pirouettes in the social eye, they must of course adhere to all the forms of civility.
