Emma

Independent, beautiful, and sharpminded, Emma Woodhouse loves to interfere in the romances of those she holds dear, but her meddlesome ways often land her in many comically tight spots.

When Emmas close friend and trusted companion, Miss Taylor, marries a neighbouring widower, the wealthy young lady is left with her father as her only friend. Having renounced the idea of her own marriage, Emma turns her attentions to matchmaking. Despite her best intentions, shes often careless and selfish, and her interference in the love lives of others forces her to address issues shes been trying her upmost to ignore.

Set in the fictional English country village of Highbury and its surrounding estates, Emma is Jane Austens most-beloved comedy and explores the pressured lives of Georgian-Regency women. First published in 1815, this romantic comedy of misunderstandings, pride, and friendship is a wonderfully lighthearted read.
