Persuasion (King's Classics)

As the Napoleonic Wars come to an end in 1814, Admirals and Captains of the Royal Navy are put ashore, their work done. Anne Elliot meets her old love, Captain Frederick Wentworth, after seven years, by the chance of his sister and brother-in-law renting her father's estate. The relationship that blossoms symbolises for Anne the possibility of a more outgoing, engaged, and fulfilling life.

Jane Austen is famous for her six novels, Sense and Sensibility, Pride and prejudice, Mansfield Park, Emma, Northanger Abbey, and Persuasion. Her works of romantic fiction, set among the landed gentry, earned her a place as one of the most widely read writers in English literature. Her realism, biting irony and social commentary as well as her acclaimed plots have gained her historical importance among scholars and critics.
