Seven years ago, Anne Elliot broke off her engagement to Captain Frederick Wentworth, convinced that marrying a man without money or status would be a grave mistake. Now, she is past her prime and single at 27. But when the estranged paramours reconnect through a couple renting the Elliot family estate, Anne discovers she may have another shot at romance - this time, on her terms.

Part fairy tale, part social commentary, Jane Austen's novel delivers not only her signature warmth and wit but perhaps her most mature and relatable heroine. Persuasion remains true to Austen's form in being ahead of its time, arguing that where there is love, there is happiness - even in the most impractical of unions.

AmazonClassics brings you timeless works from the masters of storytelling. Ideal for anyone who wants to hear a great work for the first time or rediscover an old favorite, these new editions open the door to literature's most unforgettable characters and beloved worlds.

Revised edition: Previously published as Persuasion, this edition of Persuasion (AmazonClassics Edition) includes editorial revisions.

The story and the narrator in particular was top notch. Very expressive and acted all the roles clearly and colorfully. Great audiobook.

Awesome narrator and story

I have listened to this book with several different readers and this is my very favorite. Mr. Page brings out the humor and satire and is able to do even annoying female voices without becoming shrill. The story is my second favorite of Jane Austen's books - Emma being the first. I have listened to this version of Persuasion several times and enjoy it more each time.

My Favorite Version of Persuasion

Very feminine oriented theme and short for Austen's measure, but entertaining. Good performance, quite theatrical for a solo reader.

Charming story

Great reader

I love this book, but the reader’s performance is so poor I could not get beyond the first chapter.

Audio AWFUL, but Austen’s Book a Masterpiece
