What does persuasion mean - a firm belief, or the action of persuading someone to think something else? Anne Elliot is one of Austen's quietest heroines, but also one of the strongest and the most open to change. She lives at the time of the Napoleonic wars, a time of accident, adventure, the making of new fortunes and alliances. A woman of no importance, she manoeuvres in her restricted circumstances as her long-time love Captain Wentworth did in the wars. Even though she is nearly thirty, well past the sell-by bloom of youth, Austen makes her win out for herself and for others like herself, in a regenerated society.
“I can listen no longer in silence. I must speak to you by such means as are within my reach.
You pirece my soul. I am half agony, half hope. Tell me not that i am too late, that such precious feelings are gone for ever.
I offer myself to you again with a heart even more your own than when you almost broke it, eight years and a half ago.
Dare not say that man forgets sooner than woman, that his love has an ealier death. I have loved none but you.
Unjust i may have been,weak and resentful i have been, but never inconstant. You alone have brought me to Bath. For you alone, I think and plan.——Have you not seen this? Can you fail to have understood my wishes? I had not waited even these ten days, could i have read your feelings, as i think you must have penetrated mine.

今天我收到了新订的阿加莎.克里斯蒂（阿婆）化名Mary Westmacott的非侦探作品集。第一篇叫Absent in the Spring。不知道如何翻译，春日离意？还是春日迟迟？翻开来读了几行，便仿佛挂上ipod，任一道类乎奥黛丽.赫本的柔暖女声轻抚耳膜，静静为我念 书，不是别的，正是简.奥斯丁...

令我反思：Anne是最像我自己的Jane Austen小说主人公（说这话会被群殴），推测可估测自己大概非常不合时宜。

没有一种性格是完美的。真正的爱不是理性地分析过哪种性格更好之后才决定在一起，而是依靠着一点点感性的冲动去欣赏对方，无限扩大某一刻对方表现出来的某一点优秀品质，一瞬间的心动绵延成长久的纠葛。/简奥斯汀的思想真的很进步。这本书里面的有几位相当优秀的女性角色，在关键时刻比男性还要机灵理智。她对人性是有思考的，对社会也有很深刻的了解。

有声书听完，觉得2007年的改编还是非常有那个气质的，又或许是我先入为主有了期待。Elliot家其他人还要更讨厌一点。

旧情复燃的故事适合成年人，但是这个世代不那么相信爱情了。非常多的内心写照，搭配海量长难句，我的英文阅读水平下降了。
