Persuasion by Jane Austen, a stunning addition to the Clothbound Classics series from Penguin, is a must-have for any literature lover. Designed by the award-winning Coralie Bickford-Smith, this exquisite hardback edition combines literary brilliance with breathtaking aesthetics.

At the heart of Persuasion is Anne Elliot, who, at twenty-seven, faces a challenging future devoid of romance. Eight years earlier, she reluctantly ended her engagement to the charming naval captain, Frederick Wentworth, under the persuasion of her friend Lady Russell. As their paths unexpectedly cross again, a heartfelt journey of love, loss, and the intricacies of societal pressures unfolds.

This elegantly crafted edition features:

  • Stunning Clothbound Cover: A collectible hardback that enriches any bookshelf.
  • Intricate Design: High-quality cloth binding adorned with sophisticated foil stamping.
  • Timeless Story: A profound exploration of love, regret, and second chances that resonates through generations.
  • Ideal Gift: Perfect for both classic literature enthusiasts and those new to Austen.

Set against the charming backdrops of Lyme Regis and Bath, Persuasion brilliantly satirizes vanity and pretension while diving deep into the emotional currents of missed opportunities. As Austen's final completed novel, it serves as a poignant reminder of love’s enduring power and the often turbulent journey it entails.

Immerse yourself in the eloquent prose of Jane Austen with this beautifully crafted edition of Persuasion. Celebrate literary excellence and aesthetic beauty that every reader should cherish.

Sherlock & Pages is a little bookshop with a big heart. We are based in Frome, Somerset, England and curate lists of books in the areas we are passionate about – landscape, nature, history, and heritage. In short, the conservation of all we’ve inherited and all we are responsible to pass on. We aim to inspire and be inspired, to form a literary culture of care and passion about this precious planet we call home.

This is a shop where you might find something you haven’t seen before, and we like to think we’ve got something for everyone. We choose each of our books with care and for a reason. This is because our physical store is small but beautifully formed, holding only around 1200 titles at any one time. We try and recreate the feel of the shop wherever we are online, to reflect our niche categories and personality.

We have an active social media presence and aim to share our story with all our friends. The long-term goal is to build a hub for the books and writers we believe in. Who knows where our adventure will lead but by supporting Sherlock & Pages you’re helping us to add a further layer of magic to our little corner of the world. If you haven’t visited our physical store, one day you might just make a literary pilgrimage down to Somerset.

Our tagline is ‘Long Live the Hedgerows’ and our symbol a hibernating dormouse. If you want to support an independent with a unique character and which will share stories with you for years to come, then choose Sherlock & Pages. The world needs bookshops with soul, for they are ‘citadels of light.’
