Jane Austen
The last novel completed by Jane Austen before her death, Persuasion is often thought to reflect on the author’s own lost love.
Sir Walter Elliot has raised his three daughters with his own sense of haughty pride. Elizabeth, at twenty-eight, has found no one good enough to marry, while Mary has, with some condescension, married the son of the local squire. The youngest, Anne, was persuaded to throw off her fiancé, Frederick Wentworth, eight years ago due to his lowly station in life.
When Wentworth returns from the Napoleonic Wars as a captain of wealth and rank, Anne must confront her remorse and her unrequited love for him as he appears to court another woman.
This is a story of second chances, humility, and the perseverance of love.
(P)1999 Blackstone Audio, Inc.Eleştirmen yorumları
“Jane Austen’s last work, published posthumously in 1817, is her deepest and most introspective. Austen’s view of the drawing apart and coming together of Anne Elliot and Frederick Wentworth is both wintry and warm.”
(Globe and Mail (Toronto))“As always, Austen’s storytelling is so confident, you can’t help but allow yourself to be taken on the enjoyable journey.”
(Amazon.com editorial review)“There’s no one to touch Jane [Austen] when you’re in a tight place.”
(Rudyard Kipling)“Persuasion...is to me the most profound of her novels, and demonstrates a fresh mastery of Shakespearen inwardness.”
(Harold Bloom)“[Austen] is a prose Shakespeare. She has a multitude of characters, all, in a certain sense, commonplace. Yet they are all as perfectly discriminated from each other as if they were the most eccentric of human beings.”
(Thomas Macaulay)Just perfect

Would you listen to Persuasion again? Why?
One of the classics on the 1001 books to read before you die lists and the reason why I listened. I didn't expect to enjoy as much as I did, assuming such a romantic novel is not a favourite genre of mine. Was pleasantly surprised and of course there are reasons why people love the works of Jane Austen, the book is far more than my original perception and was a page turner.What was one of the most memorable moments of Persuasion?
The trip to Lyme Regis in the novel has stayed with me as well as the difficult family relationships and restrictions on the heroine as a woman at that time.Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?
Pretty much. I surprised myself. I bought as a list book and part of a members multi offer. I now have other Jane Austen books in my library to listen too. I'm not a Jane Austen devotee but can see why she's widely loved.Surprised at this my first Austen read
