Persuasion
Author: Jane Austen
Publisher: Penguin
ISBN: 0143106287
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 338
Book Description
Jane Austen's beloved and subtly subversive final novel of romantic tension and second chances. Now a motion picture from Netflix starring Dakota Johnson and Henry Golding, and a TikTok Book Club Pick. 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 deeply felt and relatable 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.

Book Description
This project began because of my love for Jane Austen. She is the only author who has enchanted me enough to read all of her works, although I am trying to do the same with other favorite writers. I am fascinated by how similar Austen's world is to ours. In spite of the hundreds of years that separate us to her daily life, we all understand her books. Society, our emotions, gender roles, life: It is the same in spite of the separation. Her attitude towards society and the role of women is chillingly similar to true feminists nowadays. She breaks all gender roles and rules on what people think about her. She writes book with romantic themes, yes, but that is not the point of her works. I had a professor who always said she "wrote books making fun of the books people think she writes." Her works are analytical, satirical and critical on society's ideas of marriage, romance and specifically women. Her language is another thing of beauty. It is especially enchanting to read aloud.
