Of all Jane Austen’s great and delightful novels, Persuasion is widely regarded as the most moving. It is the story of second chances. Anne Elliot, daughter of the snobbish Sir Walter Elliot, is a woman of quiet charm and deep feelings. When she was nineteen, she fell in love with—and was engaged to—a naval officer, the fearless and headstrong Captain Wentworth. But the young man had no fortune and Anne allowed herself to be persuaded to give him up. Now, eight years later, Wentworth has returned to the neighbourhood—a rich man and still unwed. Anne’s love is muffled by her pride and he seems cold and unforgiving. What happens as the two are thrown together in the social world of Bath—and as an eager new suitor appears for Anne—is touchingly and wittily told in a masterpiece that is also one of the most entrancing novels in the English language.
