EmmaEmma

Beautiful, intelligent, and wealthy, Emma Woodhouse lives in the quiet village of Highbury, convinced that her talent for matchmaking is flawless. Determined to pair off her friends, she soon discovers that her plans are not always as perfect as she imagines-and that true love may be hiding where she least expects it. First published in 1815, Emma is one of Jane Austen's most ingenious and refined works. With her characteristic humor, irony, and sharp social observation, the author portrays the customs of Georgian England and introduces us to one of her most memorable heroines: imperfect, endearing, and full of life.
