Dans ce roman, Jane Austen nous propose une nouvelle critique de l’aristocratie anglaise, en particulier l’arrivée de la nouvelle noblesse.
Ce qui m’a le plus touché dans ce roman, ce sont les personnages d’Anne Elliot et Frederick Wentworth.
Leur douceur, leur sincérité ne peuvent qu’émouvoir!
Un grand classique de la littérature étrangère à lire et relire sans modération !!
