*Preorder for delivery from 10th February 2026*
Jane Austen’s Sense and Sensibility, one of the great novels of love and restraint, is now available as an Audiobook in a Card, a thoughtfut way to share a classic work of fiction.
The novel follows the Dashwood sisters as they navigate the emotional and social pressures of Regency England. When Marianne falls for the charming yet unsuitable John Willoughby, she dismisses her sister Elinor’s careful warnings, trusting instead to the intensity of her feelings. Elinor, guided by reason and propriety, quietly bears her own romantic disappointment. As the sisters encounter heartbreak and misunderstanding, Austen’s story explores how happiness in a society shaped by status and wealth depends on a careful balance between feeling and judgement.
Originally published in 1811, Sense and Sensibility remains admired for its wit and sharp observation of social behaviour. Heard aloud, Austen’s prose reveals its full rhythm and humour.
This full-length audiobook is narrated by Rachel Atkins. Trained at the Royal Welsh College of Music and Drama, Atkins brings her experience across stage, screen, radio and audiobooks to capture Austen's distinctive voice.
Each card includes space for a handwritten message and comes with a plain kraft envelope, ready to post or hand-deliver. Inside, a QR code unlocks the full audiobook through the Spiracle experience, with clear instructions for listening.
A considered gift for birthdays, Christmas, Mother’s Day, or Father’s Day, and a rewarding choice for anyone who loves classic novels. Thoughtful and engaging, this edition invites listeners to experience Sense and Sensibility afresh.
