Anne Elliot is far from being a prig, but is a young woman of breeding, depth of emotion and unswerving integrity. We first encounter her leading a curiously Cinderella-like existence with her ludicrous father and her imperious sister. As the story unfolds, Anne frees herself from familial authority through her relationships with other strong women, and achieves personal fulfillment in this matchless novel in which conventional roles of hero and heroine are reversed and men and women are presented as moral equals.
