书籍简介

在《劝导》中，简-奥斯汀开始发现，这个世界比她想象的要大，要神秘，要浪漫。

简-奥斯汀这本关于错过的机会和第二次机会的动人的晚期小说以安妮-艾略特为中心，她已不再年轻，也没有什么浪漫的前景。八年前，她在别人的劝说下解除了与贫穷、英俊的海军上尉弗雷德里克-温特沃斯的婚约。在奥斯汀完成的小说中，他们再次相遇时发生的事情令人感动。《劝导》以莱姆雷吉斯和巴斯的时尚社会为背景，是对虚荣心和自命不凡的精彩讽刺，也是一个成熟、温柔的爱情故事，带有心痛的色彩。

'In Persuasion, Jane Austen is beginning to discover that the world is larger, more mysterious, and more romantic than she had supposed' Virginia Woolf

Jane Austen's moving late novel of missed opportunities and second chances centres on Anne Elliot, no longer young and with few romantic prospects. Eight years earlier, she was persuaded by others to break off her engagement to poor, handsome naval captain Frederick Wentworth. What happens when they meet again is movingly told in Austen's last completed novel. Set in the fashionable societies of Lyme Regis and Bath, Persuasion is a brilliant satire of vanity and pretension, and a mature, tender love story tinged with heartache.

Jane Austen, the daughter of a clergyman, was born in Hampshire in 1775, and later lived in Bath and the village of Chawton. As a child and teenager, she wrote brilliantly witty stories for her family's amusement, as well as a novella, Lady Susan. Her first published novel was Sense and Sensibility, which appeared in 1811 and was soon followed by Pride and Prejudice, Mansfield Park and Emma. Austen died in 1817, and Persuasion and Northanger Abbey were published posthumously in 1818.
