Persuasion is one of Jane Austen's masterpieces. The last fully written novel she ever published, Persuasion was published in 1817 after her death. It is the culmination of Austen's many years of writing. This lovely novel gives readers fully-fleshed glimpses into the protagonist's psyche. It has been adapted numerous times into movies, TV series, and plays.
In this story, we follow Anne Elliot, a spinster of twenty-seven years who has to move with her family in hopes of reducing their debt by renting their home to a naval Admiral and his wife. As it turns out, the brother of the wife is Anne's long-lost love. They were engaged seven years prior, but Anne was persuaded to break the engagement by her family because he was a "poor naval officer of no prospects."
"How quick come the reasons for approving what we like."Now a rich officer, Wenworth seems to not have forgiven Anne for breaking off their engagement. What will happen between them? Will their love be rekindled or is the animosity too strong? Read this edition and find out!
