At a festival, are you Elinor or Marianne? | Brief letters
Austen powers | Cherry surprise | Fission statement | Word to the wise | Up to no good
Your articles presented two entertaining but very different approaches to kitting yourself out for a music festival (‘A godsend at 5am’, 12 June; Field the love, 13 June). One was all boots and head torches, the other pretty dresses and earrings. How appropriate, in this Jane Austen anniversary year, to see the contrasting demands of Sense and Sensibility so clearly set out.
