Persuasion (Illustrated) #920136

• Illustrated edition — includes newly curated illustrations, a concise book summary, a brief author biography, and a handy characters list.

Jane Austen’s Persuasion is a tender, incisive romance about second chances and the quiet courage to follow one’s heart. At nineteen, Anne Elliot is convinced to refuse the earnest Captain Frederick Wentworth for lack of fortune and rank. Eight years later, Wentworth returns—successful and apparently unmoved—while Anne, wiser and still deeply feeling, must navigate family vanity, social expectations, and the possibility of love reborn.
This reader-friendly edition presents the complete, unabridged text enhanced with evocative illustrations that illuminate Bath’s drawing rooms and the windswept shores of Lyme. A clear book summary distills the central plot and themes; a concise biography of Jane Austen adds historical and personal context; and a characters list keeps the Elliots, Musgroves, and their circle at your fingertips.
Ideal for students, book clubs, and lovers of classic romance, this beautifully illustrated volume blends literary authenticity with modern readability—showcasing Austen’s wit, emotional depth, and the timeless thrill of love renewed.
