Oh, I do love "Persuasion"! It's funny, because I honestly do think that pining over someone you barely know for eight years is a bit... weird. But That Letter gives me goose bumps. "Pierce my soul", indeed. I also like Anne a lot, even though she's too enduring and passive for my taste. (But then again, she's so rational even in her love sickness and suffering, and so life-weary and jaded. Ah, Anne...) - Obviously, when it comes to "Persuasion", I am a big sop, too. I blame Austen's superior skills.
