Jane Austen - Persuasion

Būklė - labai gera

Persuasion is Austen's final completed novel, published six months after her death in 1817. The story revolves around Anne Elliot who at 27 is no longer considered young enough for worthy romantic prospects. Eight years earlier, she had been persuaded to break off her engagement to Frederick Wentworth, a handsome naval captain with neither fortune nor rank. What transpires when they reunite is movingly told in this remarkable love story tinged with the heartache of missed opportunities.
