Description:

Only a writer with considerable skill and a fair amount of confidence would dare a sequel to Jane Austen's Sense and Sensibility, especially given the renewed interest in her work, not to mention her status as a classic author. But Julia Barrett, whose Presumption was a sequel to Pride and Prejudice, has produced a novel that pays homage to Austen by following her style while not mimicking it. Her heroines are smart and well-mannered (including cameos by some of Austen's originals), the pace is quick yet controlled, and the story lines, while echoing Austen's style and tête-à-têtes between characters, are innovative.
