Austen: Sense and Sensibility

Not much to say on this one, Elinor and Marianne Dashwood are the main characters, and the novel is very similar to Austen's other novels, in telling the story of women getting married despite numerous ups and downs. The main players are Willoughby, who doesn't marry either because he's a selfish stinker, and Edward Ferrar and Colonel Brandon. There is also that screwy Mrs. Jennings and Lucy Steele, who can't make up her mind to marry Edward or his brother.
