Persuasion is widely appreciated as a moving love story. It is the last book
written by Austen which was finished in a hurry during her illness from
which she eventually died. However it is beautiful and original in many ways
. It is the first of her novels about a woman who is not young and pretty,
who by the standards of the time is almost doomed to be an old maid for the
rest of her life; It was generally regarded as Austen's "present to herself,
to Miss Sharp, to Cassandra, to Martha Lloyd .
