Sense and Sensibility (Deseret Alphabet edition)

Jane Austen (1775-1817) was an English novelist whose works of romantic fiction, set among the landed gentry, earned her a place as one of the most widely read writers in English literature. Her realism and biting social commentary have gained her historical importance among scholars and critics. Sense and Sensibility (1811) is her first published novel and, after

Pride and Prejudice

, her most famous. It contrasts the attitudes of two sisters, practical Elinor and romantic Marianne Dashwood (representing "sense" and "sensibility," respectively), as they strive to achieve the single most important accomplishment for an English girl in the Regency era: find a suitable (and sufficently affluent) husband. This edition is in the Deseret Alphabet, a phonetic alphabet for English developed by the Regents of the University of Deseret in the mid-nineteenth century.
