Persuasion

The last novel completed by Jane Austen and widely seen as its most mature work, Persuasion is set during the Napoleonic Wars and several of its characters are, like two of Austen’s own brothers, officers in the Royal Navy. It is, of course, a love story, but the heroine is no longer a very young girl.

Ultimul roman completat de Jane Austen si vazuta pe scara larga ca fiind cea mai matura lucrare a sa, Persuasiunea este plasata in timpul razboaielor napoleoniene si cateva dintre personajele sale sunt, ca doi dintre fratii lui Austen, ofiteri in Marina Regala. Este, desigur, o poveste de dragoste, dar eroina nu mai este o fata foarte tanara.
