One of six new delightful and collectible hardback editions from Penguin Classics publishing
to celebrate Jane Austen's 250th anniversary 'I never have been in love it is not my way or
my nature and I do not think I ever shall' Beautiful clever rich - and single - Emma
Woodhouse is perfectly content with her life and sees no need for either love or marriage.
Nothing however delights her more than interfering in the romantic lives of others. But when
she ignores the warnings of her good friend Mr Knightley and attempts to arrange a suitable
match for her protégée Harriet Smith her carefully laid plans soon unravel and have
consequences that she never expected. With its imperfect but charming heroine and its witty and
subtle exploration of relationships Emma is often seen as Jane Austen's most flawless work.
