Emma - Chiltern Classics Hardback

"Emma Woodhouse, handsome, clever, and rich, with a comfortable home and happy disposition, seemed to unite some of the best blessings of existence; and had lived nearly twenty-one years in the world with very little to distress or vex her." Emma, 1816

With these opening lines of Jane Austen's famous novel we are introduced to Emma Woodhouse a clever, wealthy and entitled young lady prone to interfering in the romantic lives of her acquaintances with often unplanned consequences. 

Emma is one of Jane Austen's favourite heroines, she cannot help but plan and plot to achieve what she thinks is best for all her friends whether they wish her to or not.

Through this novel Jane Austen describes the gossipy, close-knit middle-class country life in Regency England.
