Pride and prejudice / Jane Austen ; [abridgement by Linda Jennings]
London : Puffin, 2018
Abstract: Il romanzo ha come temi principali l'orgoglio di classe del signor Darcy e il pregiudizio di Elizabeth Bennet nei confronti di quest'ultimo. La trama si concentra sulle vicende della famiglia Bennet, composta dai signori Bennet e dalle loro cinque figlie: Jane, Elizabeth (per gli amici Lizzy), Mary, Catherine (detta anche Kitty) e Lydia. L'obiettivo rimasto alla signora Bennet, vista la mancanza di un figlio maschio che possa ereditare la loro tenuta di Longbourn nell'Hertfordshire, è quello di vedere sposata almeno una delle sue figlie prima possibile

Sense and sensibility / Jane Austen
London : Arcturus, 2010
Abstract: Two sisters of opposing temperaments but who share the pangs of tragic love provide the subjects for Sense and Sensibility. Elinor, practical and conventional, is the epitome of sense; Marianne, emotional and sentimental, the embodiment of sensibility. To each comes the sorrow of unhappy love: Elinor desires a man who is promised to another while Marianne loses her heart to a scoundrel who jilts her. Their mutual suffering brings a closer understanding between the two sisters--and true love finally triumphs when sense gives way to sensibility and sensibility gives way to sense. Now an award-winning movie written by Emma Thompson.
Pride and prejudice / Jane Austen
London : Collins, 2010
London : Penguin classics, 2008
Abstract: Part of Penguin's beautiful hardback Clothbound Classics series, designed by the award-winning Coralie Bickford-Smith, these delectable and collectible editions are bound in high-quality colourful, tactile cloth with foil stamped into the design. 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
