When the Dashwood sisters are left in reduced circumstances after their father's death, they must rely on the kindness of relatives and their own resourcefulness to secure their futures. Elinor, guided by sense, hides her heartache behind composure and duty, while her younger sister Marianne, ruled by sensibility, follows her passions with reckless abandon. Both must navigate love, betrayal, and disappointment in a society where fortune and marriage dictate happiness.

Jane Austen's first published novel is a sparkling tale of romance, wit, and social satire, exploring the balance between reason and emotion, and the resilience required to find true love.

This version has been formatted for bionic reading, a formatting method that highlights the first few letters of each word in bold. It's designed to support faster and more focused reading by guiding the eyes and reducing visual fatigue. Though beneficial for everyone, this technique is especially popular among readers with ADHD or concentration difficulties. There is also a short but helpful study guide at the end of the book.
