Elinor is more observant? Written by Erica M. (9/10/2009 9:52 p.m.) in consequence of the missive, Such funnies!, penned by Barb JA

It is interesting to note that Elinor seems to understand Marianne a lot better than Marianne understands her! While Marianne is constantly wondering how Elinor can do such and such and often attributes her calmer nature to being less feeling, Elinor knows exactly how Marianne will react and why. I wonder if it's due to Marianne's being more caught up in her own sensibility than in other people?
