"Persuasion" - The awakening of Frederick Wentworth
'Persuasion' - Jane Austen's tale about the stiflingly dull life of Anne Elliot, who at nineteen gave up her engagement to satisfy the strict and snobbish ideas of her class-obsessed father.
Eight years later, faded and quiet, what future does she have? The pain of what might have been is made worse when Captain Wentworth returns and she has to see him apparently falling in love with a much younger girl.

Fussy Editor
Me - [ feeling pleased on completing dramatic scene] Think I've nailed it.
Editor - No, no way, that clause needs more emotion... [and give that cat a bit of chicken, if it has to watch all that.]
Me - OK Boss, [hours later after rewriting the scene] Is this better?
Editor - Wow! Hot stuff alright. If the cat has to sit through that, make it a bowlful of chicken.
Me - Anything you say, Ed, must keep it Paws not Claws.
