Sense and Sensibility

by Jane Austen

Two sisters manage heartbreak by entirely opposite methods, one all composure and one all confession, and the book is fairly even-handed about which approach costs more. Austen wrote it first, before she trusted herself yet. You can feel her getting braver by the final chapters.
