Описание
Jane Austens final novel is her most mature and wickedly satirical. It follows the story of Anne Elliott, who as a teenager, was engaged to a seemingly ideal man, Frederick Wentworth. But after being persuaded by her friend Lady Russell that he is too poor to be a suitable match, Anne ends their engagement. When they are reacquainted eight years later, their circumstances are transformed: Frederick is returning triumphantly from the Napoleonic War, while Annes fortunes are floundering. Will their past regrets prevent them from finding future happiness?
Gorgeously illustrated by Hugh Thomson, this Macmillan Collectors Library edition of Persuasion also includes an afterword by author and critic Henry Hitchings.
Designed to appeal to the booklover, the Macmillan Collectors Library is a series of beautiful gift editions of much loved classic titles. Macmillan Collectors Library are books to love and treasure.
