"Pray, pray be composed," cried Elinor, "and do not betray what you feel to every body present. Perhaps he has not observed you yet."

For Elinor Dashwood, sensible and sensitive, and her romantic, impetuous younger sister Marianne, the prospect of marrying the men they love appears remote. In a world ruled by money and self-interest, the Dashwood sisters have neither fortune nor connections. Concerned for others and for social proprieties, Elinor is ill-equipped to compete with self-centred fortune-hunters like Lucy Steele, whilst Marianne's unswerving belief in the truth of her own feelings makes her more dangerously susceptible to the designs of unscrupulous men.

Through her heroines' parallel experiences of love, loss, and hope, Jane Austen offers a powerful analysis of the ways in which women's lives were shaped by the claustrophobic society in which they had to survive.

Libro usato in ottime condizioni

Recensito in Italia il 3 gennaio 2024

Acquisto verificato

Impossibile caricare il contenuto multimediale.

Ho comprato il libro usato e, come segnalato dal venditore, è presente qualche segno (insignificante) di usura unicamente sulla copertina.
L'interno è in perfetto stato.
Il libro è bellissimo, le pagine sono perfettamente leggibili e può essere uno strumento utile per praticamente la lettura in inglese e arricchire il proprio lessico.
Last but not least, la storia narrata è un capolavoro della letteratura inglese.
Consigliato.

lo stile perfetto della Austen

Recensito in Italia il 20 gennaio 2023

Acquisto verificato

Che dire? Lo stile della Austen riesce a catturarmi dalle primissime pagine per quella sua capacità di riuscire a delineare minuziosamente con tanti particolari l'ambientazione, i personaggi dei suoi romanzi, e la società del suo tempo. Mentre leggo riesco a immaginare i luoghi e i protagonisti delle sue storie come se li vedessi.

Edizione molto carina.

Recensito in Italia il 18 agosto 2019

Acquisto verificato

Spedizione ottima come sempre.
Tipico libro della Austen ambientato in epoca regency, protagoniste come sempre femminili attorno alle quali ruotano tutta una serie di personaggi attraverso i quali vengono rappresentati i tratti tipici della (più o meno) alta società dell'epoca.
Se vi piace la Austen andate sul sicuro.
Per quanto riguarda l'edizione io l'ho trovata molto carina, il libro è abbastanza piccolo e quindi leggero, in altre parole ottimo da portare in giro.
Le pagine non hanno margini molto ampi e questo potrebbe magari dare fastidio.
Lo sconsiglio a chi sta iniziando ad imparare l'inglese perché ci sono diversi termini antichi e l'autrice usa spesso periodi lunghi che potrebbero confondere.

Bellissimo! La copertina è favolosa e se sei un fan della Austen queste edizioni in inglese sono una vera gioia.

Adatto a studenti di inglese livello b1

Recensito in Italia il 13 marzo 2022

Acquisto verificato

Non ho mai letto la versione originale di questo libro. Questa è una versione semplificata e riadattata per ragazzini o per chi vuole migliorare il proprio livello di inglese leggendo dei classici graduati per livello intermedio.
Rispetto al celebre "orgoglio e pregiudizio " questo libro non è alla sua altezza, tuttavia è una storia semplice che fa riflettere sugli usi e costumi del tempo, il cui unico obiettivo e aspirazione di una donna era dover trovare un marito .

Beautiful and practical

Recensito in Germania il 29 aprile 2024

Acquisto verificato

This is a very nice little volume, easy to hold or to carry around, pretty with dust jacket or without, a good font in a good size, practical bookmark. I've never watched the film, have an idea of what it's about and am currently enjoying Austen's witty and precise descriptions. It is much more entertaining and pleasant to read than I expected.

Good

Its a good book but long winded, it gives more insight than the film does obviously.
I like Jane but she does go about the houses to get to her point.

Different cover

Rivisto in Polonia il 21 marzo 2023

Acquisto verificato

The book arrived in a timely manner and without any signs of damage. However, I was quite dissapointed to discover that the cover was a bit different from the one on the website (it had pink flowers on it, not light yellow as my copy has). It is not a tragedy, but I guess anyone who collects certain editions will understand. The content of the book in terms of print and quality of notes as usually with Penguin Clothbound Classics 10/10.

Excellent Classic

Recensito in Canada il 23 dicembre 2020

Acquisto verificato

5+ stars (8/10 hearts). This was the last Austen book I read. The first time I read it, I wasn’t enthusiastic—probably because I was still reeling from shock by the end. But this time, I loved it. It’s… well, it’s silly to say it’s one of my favourites because I love them all, but I really do enjoy this one even more than some of the others. It’s so hard to rate the Austen books, but when I think about it I can set a pretty clear ranking based on how deeply I love the books. To me, Northanger Abbey is really only a hilarious satirical romp with a few good lessons, but Pride & Prejudice is a sparkling masterpiece of wit and style and character—an amazing story, an excellent piece of literature, and a splendid lesson. Emma is a sweet, light-hearted, yet thought-provoking journey, while Mansfield Park is a very deep, almost wistful & nostalgic bittersweet reflection. Persuasion is a delightful, satisfying romance… which I need to reread because I remember nothing more about it… and Sense & Sensibility strikes me a sort of mashup of Emma + Pride & Prejudice in style… more mature and serious than P&P, but with a more somber lesson than Emma.

Of course, the writing style was superb. Austen has a great gift for saying much while saying little, and is full of grace and dignity and beauty. Her trick of portraying character and setting in a few little strokes is pure genius, and her deep weave of plot and arc are absolutely amazing—and her witty humour! There’s just so much of it! Also, I say this every time, but Austen more than any other writer makes the people of past centuries live for me and reminds me most strikingly how we’re all human, and there’s nothing new under the sun… even slang!

The characters were similarly splendidly done. I find it so interesting how much I relate both to Marianne and to Elinor. I am not quite as silly and impolite as Marianne (I hope), but I certainly relate to her in many ways and was even more like her as a teen… And while as an oldest child I relate to Elinor a lot, I am not as steady and polite as Elinor (I wish). What a model she is, to be sure! She is such a wonderful woman—courageous, strong, beautiful, responsible, loving, and desirous of well-doing in all. Marianne was very sweet, and she meant well—but the older I get the more I understand how foolish her 17-year-old opinions are. Even if I still understand her POV very much. ;)

And then there's You-Know-Who. I love him, and then hate him, and then am fascinated into loving him again, and then despise him… I simply can’t figure him out and just puzzle over him and try to understand him for a long time after finishing the book. He made me think of Henry Crawford. Both were SO close to redemption but were too weak and threw it aside... and lost forever. (On that topic, though, he did make an important point: “I do not mean to justify myself, but at the same time cannot leave you to suppose that I have nothing to urge—that because she was injured she was irreproachable, and because I was a libertine, she must be a saint.” That is not something people consider enough—and not just about him.) He’s really a heartbreak… and like Elinor, I don’t know how to think of him.

As for Colonel Brandon, I loved him from start to finish. He’s simply amazing. I disliked Edward at first, but he won my regard and kept it to the end. What a respectable, honourable man he was! He messed up—he reminds me of Edmund Bertram—but he pulled through it all with good character. Lucy was horrid (though I always like her at first and am astonished by her nastiness); Robert was awful; Fanny and John were simply terrible; and Mrs. Ferrars (who is not a caricature!) is an ogress. Lady Middleton was... just… very irritating… yet she had her good points; and Sir John you couldn't help liking even as you shook your head or rolled your eyes at him. As for Mrs. Jennings, I learned to love her. She had so much real love and kindliness! Charlott Palmer was just… *shrugs*... and Mr. Palmer was mostly *eyeroll,* but ended up better than I expected; and I did like Mrs. Dashwood, even if she could be foolish and easily swayed. She was at least very loving and honestly admitted to her mistakes.

As for the storyline, it was hooking. I read this entire book in pretty much two days/sessions because I simply COULD NOT put it down. The plot was so done. What a rollercoaster! What laughter, what horror, what smiles! It’s sobering story, really, with some excellent lessons. I think what you come away with most is—how strong is your character? This is what will sink you or save you. Could I stand like Edward? Endure like Elinor? Persevere like Colonel Brandon? Am I judging people by appearances, or by their characters, or by their status, or by their influence? Do I passionately pursue your own loves and passionately grieve my own pain without noticing the hurt it can give others? Do I blindly pursue what is not for me, or happily choose to do what is not seemly because the one I love suggests it? This one whom I love—is he worthy of my love?

There’s so much to take away and to come back for.

Content: A woman related to one of the MCs is married to a man she despises and runs away from home with another man. Being abandoned by him, she births his child and becomes a prostitute. Her daughter (16) is seduced by another young man, impregnated, and abandoned. Barely detailed + tastefully handled, but probably for ages 16/18+ depending on situation.

A Favourite Quote: “Four months!”—cried Marianne again.—“So calm! so cheerful! how have you been supported?”—
“By feeling that I was doing my duty.— ... I did not love only him;—and while the comfort of others was dear to me, I was glad to spare them from knowing how much I felt. Now, I can think and speak of it with little emotion. I would not have you suffer on my account.”
A Favourite Beautiful Quote: “They gaily ascended the downs, rejoicing in their own penetration at every glimpse of blue sky; and when they caught in their faces the animating gales of a high south-westerly wind, they pitied the fears which had prevented their mother and Elinor from sharing such delightful sensations. “Is there a felicity in the world,” said Marianne, “superior to this?—Margaret, we will walk here at least two hours.” Margaret agreed, and they pursued their way against the wind, resisting it with laughing delight for about twenty minutes longer.”
A Favourite Humorous Quote: “Her family had of late been exceedingly fluctuating. For many years of her life she had had two sons; but the crime and annihilation of Edward a few weeks ago, had robbed her of one; the similar annihilation of Robert had left her for a fortnight without any; and now, by the resuscitation of Edward, she had one again. In spite of his being allowed once more to live, however, he did not feel the continuance of his existence secure, till he had revealed his present engagement.”
