Publisher Description
An Apple Books Classic edition.
Jane Austen’s last completed novel is a mature, gorgeously bittersweet story about love, regret, and second chances. It’s been seven years since Anne’s family induced her to break off her engagement to Wentworth, a sea captain of little means. But losing him only made her realize how precious their love had been, leaving her with a sorrow that never quite faded.
When their paths cross again, his presence cuts through the grayness of Anne’s world like sudden sunlight. But could he ever rekindle his feelings for her after such heartbreak? Nuanced in its humor and deeply yearning in its emotion, Persuasion shows Austen at her most ruminative and insightful.

The book tells the story of Anne Elliot - daughter of an indebted widowed baron. His financial situation leads to an unexpected reunion between Anne and Frederick - her old flame from 8.5 years ago. Overall, this is a touching story of love severed, yet unaltered by classism and time; a humorous overview of society in the 19th century; an interesting narrative of family relationships, friendship, and comradeship.
It would make a beloved young adult novel 200 years ago or even now.
