Nesbit's 'The Literary Sense' renders a reflective journey through the inner workings of its characters' minds, where the eponymous sense is a trope that Nesbit subtly weaves into each narrative strand. The prose is marked by its Edwardian elegance and cleverness, engaging readers through stories that reflect on social and emotional undercurrents of the time.
