Book Hero thinking about your next read

Jane Austen’s classic novel about heartbreak and second chances, now freshly repackaged for the Union Square & Co. Signature Classics line.

Book Hero Magic formatted this description to make it easier to read. While it's new and still learning, it may not be perfect - your feedback is welcome! Description

Eight years ago, Anne Elliot followed the advice of Lady Russell, her only true friend, and broke off her engagement to the dashing young naval officer Frederick Wentworth. When Anne and the newly wealthy Captain Wentworth cross paths years later, it is clear that he has neither forgotten nor forgiven their past.

Can true love survive heartbreak? Who should we listen to in matters of the heart?

Filled with Jane Austen's trademark wit and social commentary, Persuasion is a delightful romance and a surprisingly subversive exploration of our need to persuade, and be persuaded by, others.
