Persuasion

by Jane Austen
$3.90
Persuasion
Persuasion

Enduring love conquers societal vanity and persuasion.

"Persuasion" isn't just a romance; it's a journey through the complexities of societal expectations and the resilience of true emotion. Anne Elliot's second chance at love with Captain Wentworth is fraught with tension and past regrets, making their slow-burning reconnection all the more rewarding. If you appreciate a character's emotional growth and a critique of social norms, Austen's eloquent prose and keen observations make this a classic to savor.

Note: While we do our best to ensure the accuracy of cover images, ISBNs may at times be reused for different editions of the same title which may hence appear as a different cover.

Description

She had been forced into prudence in her youth, she learned romance as she grew older: the natural sequel of an unnatural beginning. Anne Elliot is persuaded by her friends and family to reject a marriage proposal from Captain Wentworth because he lacks in fortune and rank. More than seven years later, when he returns home from the Navy, Anne realises she still has strong feelings for him, but Wentworth only appears to have eyes for a friend of Anne's. Moving, tender, but intrinsically 'Austen' in style, with its satirical portrayal of the vanity of society in the 18th-century England, Persuasion celebrates enduring love, hope and determination as one woman strives to reignite a lost relationship.
