Unfairly deprived of their family inheritance by the grasping Mrs John Dashwood & her husband, Elinor & Marianne Dashwood and their mother find themselves in greatly reduced circumstances.
Despite their very different personalities, both sisters experience great sorrows in their affairs of the heart:
Marianne demonstrably wretched & Elinor allowing no one to see her private heartache. It is, however, the qualities common to them both - discernment, constancy & integrity in the face of the fecklessness of others - that allow them entry into a new life of peace & contentment.
