Summary

Here is Jane Austen's classic tale of romantic entanglement, read by Kate Winslet. The reduced cirmcumstances of the Dashwood family cast a shadow over the romantic aspirations of daughters Elinor and Marianne, who must learn to mix sense with sensibility in approaching their problems with both money and men.

different from the original text

Unfortunately, it is different from the original text. I wanted to follow the text listening the audio at the same time. But it is just not possible.. Sentences are not full, some of them are completely missed. Even the order of words is different in some cases .. So disappointing ..
