Emma ~ youngest daughter of Henry Woodhouse, gentleman of Highbury in Surrey ~ is happy, handsome and rich, with a tendency to matchmaking rather in advance of her twenty years. She had only two faults. She thought rather too highly of herself and was far too fond of getting her own way. From this comedy of misunderstandings Austen distils a work which reveals through brilliant irony, the way the mind is misled by hidden desires.* This is a NEAR FINE text copy of the 1st. thus, with some light age reducing it to VG++.*
Sinopse
Emma is a novel by Jane Austen, published in 1815. The story follows the life of Emma Woodhouse, a wealthy and beautiful young woman who lives in the English countryside. Emma fancies herself as a matchmaker and sets out to find a suitable husband for her friend Harriet Smith. However, her attempts to play cupid lead to several misadventures, including a love triangle involving her own romantic interests. As the story unfolds, Emma learns important lessons about humility, love, and the consequences of meddling in the lives of others. The novel is a satire of the English upper class and is widely considered a classic of English literature.
