內容簡介
中文版書名為《勸服》
身為男爵千金,安在十九歲時與青年海軍軍官溫特伍相戀,私訂婚約。但卻因男方家無恆產且地位卑微,這段純樸的姻緣,便在父親沃特爵士和她最信任的教母羅素夫人勸說反對下告終。
八年過去了,已晉身海軍上校、頗有一番積蓄的溫特伍重回故地。因緣際會之下,安與昔日戀人再度重逢。以眼神猜心的一場捉迷藏自此上演,兩人該如何化解昔日的情怨、擺脫旁人的意見牽絆,以彼此真心相對……
年屆不惑的才女珍‧奧斯汀,以創新的筆法與不同以往作品的成熟角度,描繪出一段曲折多磨的成人愛情。
Twenty-seven-year old Anne Elliot is Austen's most adult heroine. Eight years before the story proper begins, she is happily betrothed to a naval officer, Frederick Wentworth, but she precipitously breaks off the engagement when persuaded by her friend Lady Russell that such a match is unworthy. The breakup produces in Anne a deep and long-lasting regret. When later Wentworth returns from sea a rich and successful captain, he finds Anne's family on the brink of financial ruin and his own sister a tenant in Kellynch Hall, the Elliot estate. Al the tension of the novel revolves around one question: Will Anne and Wentworth be reunited in their love?
