Publisher Description
Emma Wodehouse is rich, spoiled, and meddlesome. Jane Austen famously declared that nobody would like her heroine except herself. Yet Emma remains as popular and beloved as Austen's other novels, a meandering but witty comedy that weaves its characters in and out of situations brought on by its heroine's attempts at playing matchmaker. It's satirical with a soft touch — more light-hearted than Austen's other novels — but written with a great deal of love for its characters.
Customer Reviews
Engaging Story
Very early on the protagonist becomes a bit unlike-able. The ending is somewhat predictable although some plot twists were introduced. Still, it is a sufficiently engaging story for compulsive readers.
Emma
Although I feel Jane Eyre a more intriguing story this book was extremely well done. Such detail and innuendo in the writing. Very nice for those who enjoy British Literature.
Emma
This is a wonderful book with a beautiful ending! No tears to be shed.
