この本について

Eight years ago Anne Elliot, then nineteen, was persuaded by an older friend to break off her engagement to a young naval officer without fortune, Frederick Wentworth. Now he returns from the wars a rich captain, while Anne, overlooked by her vain father and sisters, has lost her bloom. Thrown together again at Lyme and in Bath, the two must find out whether a love long buried can be spoken a second time.

背景と意義
