Persuasion
1 journaler for this copy...
Her younger sister is already married to a suitable man. Her older sister has taken over as lady-of-the-manor since their mother's death. But Anne Elliot has remained single and at home after being persuaded by family and friends, eight years ago, not to marry Frederick Wentworth. And now naval Captain Wentworth is returning after making his name and his fortune. He, too, has remained unattached. But what about the ingratiating William Elliot, Anne's recently widowed cousin, who has also come back into the family's lives? Will the scheming Mrs. Clay manage to snag Anne's widowed father, the baronet? In this nearly 200-year-old comedy of manners, Anne's is an entertaining journey in a time when propriety, position, and property dictated people's most important decisions.
