Published posthumously in 1818, Persuasin completes the cycle of novels with which beloved English writer Jane Austen helped define the feminist literary canon and set the foundation for the 19th century novel and beyond. This tale of patient love and second chances is a fine testament to Austen's maturity as a storyteller and social commentator, and a powerful reflection on freedom of choice and the passage of time.
