Marianne Dashwood wears her heart on her sleeve, and when she falls in love with the dashing but unsuitable John Willoughby she ignores her sister Elinor's warning that her impulsive behaviour leaves her open to gossip and innuendo. Meanwhile, Elinor, always sensitive to social convention, is struggling to conceal her own romantic disappointment, even from those closest to her. Through their parallel experience of love - and its threatened loss - the sisters learn that sense must mix with sensibility if they are to find personal happiness in a society where status and money govern the rules of love.
This edition includes explanatory notes, textual variants between the first and second editions, and Tony Tanner's introduction to the original Penguin Classic edition.
"A woman of seven and twenty, " said Marianne, after pausing a moment, "can never hope to feel or inspire affection again, and if her home be uncomfortable, or her fortune small, I can suppose that she might bring herself to submit to the offices of a nurse, for the sake of the provision and security of a wife. In his marrying such a woman therefore there would be nothing unsuitable. It would be a compact of convenience, and the world would be satisfied. In my eyes it would be no marriage at all, but that would be nothing. To me it would seem only a commercial exchange, in which each wished to be benefited at the expense of the other. " (查看原文)

戏剧冲突以及witticism的安排都弱于傲慢与偏见 T T

虽然剧情偶有老套，但Austen特别的幽默跟对人性的洞察再过几百年依然不会过时

读的时候频频被突出现的金句惊艳到，情节上也总出现让我奋不顾身熬夜再读个两三章的剧情点。说教确实有些说教，但奥斯汀经典讽刺环节我太喜欢了。哥嫂组，太好笑了吧，放到现在都要感叹一句是逻辑怪的程度！

小时候觉得简奥斯丁无非也就写写乡间贵族谈恋爱，现在看来这其中已包含了最恒久的情感，古今男女之事，绝无异同。最喜欢的是对人与人之间虚与委蛇的吐槽，都市青年微博小号也比不过犀利如此吧。
