8 Persuasion Read By Stephanie Poppins

In 1813, 54-year-old widower Sir Walter Elliot of Kellynch Hall, Somerset reviews his entry in the list of nobles in order to take his mind off his troubles. He has overspent his income and is deep in debt.

In this episode, Anne reflects on the real happiness that could have been hers, as she and Captain Wentworth were once perfectly suited in temperament and sentiment. Admiral and Mrs. Croft are the only other model match, which indicates that Austen considers true matches to consist of equal understanding and character and practicality.

Toward the end of the recording (almost 2 mins left) it seems that the voice stopped. Otherwise, lovely as always 🙏🏼

Hmm, not a very promising meeting…we shall see!
Thank you!❤️🙏🏽

Ohhh, so close and yet...? Hopeful! 🧡

Curious ending with Captain Wentworth stating no he shall not marry....
Was there anything i missed after that line? Emptiness for a minute before the closing music.
