(Penguin Classics Deluxe Edition)

A Penguin Classics Deluxe Edition of Jane Austen's final novel Written during Jane Austen's race against failing health, Persuasion tells the story of Anne Elliot, a woman who - at twenty-seven - is no longer young and has few romantic prospects. Eight years ago, she was persuaded by her friend Lady Russell to break off her engagement to Frederick Wentworth, a handsome naval captain with neither fortune nor rank. When Anne and Frederick meet again, he has acquired both, but still feels the sting of her rejection. A brilliant satire of vanity and pretension, Austen's last completed novel is also a movingly told love story tinged with the heartache of missed opportunities. For more than seventy years, Penguin has been the leading publisher of classic literature in the English-speaking world. With more than 1,700 titles, Penguin Classics represents a global bookshelf of the best works throughout history and across genres and disciplines. Readers trust the series to provide authoritative texts enhanced by introductions and notes by distinguished scholars and contemporary authors, as well as up-to-date translations by award-winning translators.

They appreciate Anne Elliot's realistic and relatable character, and many find the prose easier to understand than other Austen works. The novel is celebrated for its themes of second chances, duty, and family, with some readers mentioning Captain Wentworth’s letter as a highlight moment. While some found it slow initially, most agree that the book ranks highly among Austen's works for its emotional depth and masterful character development.
