Scholastic Classics: Persuasion

An emosh classic by the pioneer of rom-com! Can Anne persuade her old flame to give it another try? Turning down your true love is a major oopsie. Years have passed since Anne broke off her engagement to Captain Wentworth. Thing is – she still holds a torch for him, even though she’ll probably never see him again. Still, a slightly dented heart is the least of her worries when her family lose their fortune. Now Anne must leave their country estate and forge a new life in the city. But as Anne navigates the ups and downs of friendship, society and counting her pennies, the handsome Captain Wentworth suddenly rocks up…

  • A timeless story of family, fortune, love and life
  • Full of Jane Austen’s trademark razor-sharp humour
  • The last complete novel this classic author ever wrote
  • Just as essential as Pride and Prejudice or Emma
