Anne Elliot refused a proposal on family advice eight years earlier, and Austen's last completed novel asks what that second chance costs.
Persuasion works in a quieter register than Austen's earlier books, with a heroine past the usual marriage-market age and a plot that turns on regret and constancy rather than on wit. This unabridged paperback carries the full original text in 224 pages, without modernised language or editorial trimming.
Where the appeal lies:
• Austen's complete, unabridged text in 224 pages
• A later, more restrained novel than Pride and Prejudice
• Anne Elliot and Captain Wentworth's renewed acquaintance at the centre
• A paperback format suited to reading and rereading
For Austen readers and literature students, published by Penguin Select Classics and available through Boipoka.
