Sinossi
Il temibile coraggio della sincerità e l'arte impeccabile dispiegata nel tenere unite le fila del racconto sono le qualità della Austen che più colpiscono. In Persuasione questa volontà di rifiuto assoluto dell'ipocrisia e dei felici autoinganni raggiunge picchi che sfiorano la crudeltà, ma si accompagna anche a una sorta di indecifrabile tristezza che, lenta e inavvertita, si deposita in chi legge. Nelle ultime e quasi disadorne pagine, la commistione, nella protagonista, di esultanza e sconforto rappresenta uno dei momenti più alti ed enigmatici della storia del romanzo inglese.

One of the major sources of contention and strife in my marriage is the disagreement between my wife and me over what is the best Jane Austen novel (yes, we are both more than a bit geekish in our love of words and literature--our second biggest ongoing quarrel is about the merits of the serial comm Leggi tutto
I wanted to read this before the new Netflix adaptation comes out later this year. I found it quite slow paced but things do pick up in the last 100 pages. I still love Austen's writing, humour and wit but didn't care as much about this book compared to Emma and Pride and Prejudice. Loved when Anne co Leggi tutto
I’m a firm believer in reading a book before the movie comes out. In this case, I revisited Persuasion, by the incomparable Jane Austen before the 2022 movie. Say what you will, but I think you can get something new out of a Jane Austen novel every time you return to it. Persuasion is a good reminde Leggi tutto
Jane Austen never disappoints me! This was the first time I've read this book, and, since it's one of her less popular novels, I didn't know what to expect. However, I quickly was swept up into the story and felt all of Anne's emotions like they were my own. I really enjoyed how, unlike the other Au Leggi tutto
Jane Austen is ruthless and brilliant; she is sarcastic, subtle and superbly witty. She writes in such a matter of fact way that the absurdity of her characters is in plain sight. Sir Walter Elliot is a complete fool. Austen doesn’t need to tell her reader this, she shows it to them. The man is comp Leggi tutto
We live at home, quiet, confined, and our feelings prey upon us. Perhaps many this year have inwardly uttered similar sighs, more or less confined to their house, weeks without a chance to see friends or loved ones turning into months, perhaps even missing the everyday routine of having a chat at the Leggi tutto
Jane Austen understood that nothing is sexier than standing seven feet away from someone, making brief eye contact, and then going home. You got to love her for that.
