Sidelined by her vain father, Sir Walter Elliot, and her self-indulgent elder sister, Elizabeth, Anne Elliot has always been swayed by others in her life decisions. Tough times force the Elliots to shift from their beloved home, Kellynch Hall, to Bath and Anne uses this opportunity to visit her sister, Mary Musgrove. But this trip brings with it a fated meeting with the man she had once loved and rejected?Captain Frederick Wentworth. Confronted with each other again as they move in the same social circle, will Captain Wentworth get over the past? Will Anne step out of her shell and the boundaries set by her family?s false sense of pride to come to terms with her true feelings for the Captain? In Persuasion, Jane Austen uses a host of characters to string together a tale of love, while remarking on the societal facades and eccentricities of the English in the early 19th-century. “Pride and Prejudice traces the life of the Bennet sisters in the Victorian times. It addresses ideas of morality, social standing of women, class divide and its idiosyncrasies through the experiences of Elizabeth Bennet, the second daughter of Mr and Mrs Bennet. All is calm and quiet in Longbourne until the summer when the mild-mannered Mr Bingley and his uptight friend Mr Darcy rent the nearby estate of Netherfield Park. Mr Bingley falls instantly for the shy, sensitive Jane, the eldest of the five Bennet girls, but sparks fly when Elizabeth and Mr Darcy meet. And so enters love, and with it comes turmoil into their young lives. Will Jane and Mr Bingley get together, despite their social differences? Will Elizabeth look beyond her first impressions of Mr Darcy? How will their choices affect their future as well as that of their sisters? This classic novel answers all this as Jane Austen skilfully weaves various themes that were quintessential to the lives of the landed gentry in early 19th century England.” Everything changes for Mrs Dashwood and her three daughters?Elinor, Marianne and Margaret?on Mr Dashwood?s death. Forcedto leave Norland Park, their beloved home, the four women start anew life in their modest cottage in Barton. But new beginnings bringwith them the whims of youth, romance, heartbreak and much morefor the prudent Elinor and the idealistic Marianne.While Elinor falls for Edward Ferras, a man whose affections appear to be reserved for another woman, Marianne?s romantic fantasies prompt her to choose the handsome, yet fickle, John Willoughby over the silent love of the much-older Colonel Brandon. Is there just heartbreak in store for the Dashwood sisters or will they be able to make choices that will irrevocably change their futures?Jane Austen?s coming-of-age tale is a book for all seasons. With ahost of interesting characters from 18th-century England, Austenuses a sharp, witty story and dramatic plot twists to comment onthe quirks of life in the Georgian era.
