Emma (Word Cloud Classics) - Paperback

Emma (Word Cloud Classics)

Author: Austen, Jane

Publication Date: 10/15/2013

Format: Paperback
Dive into a world of romance, village life, and even a little silliness in Jane Austen’s timeless novel.

Despite the fact that Jane Austen set out to write a story with a heroine whom she said that ā€œno one but myself will much like,ā€Ā 
EmmaĀ hasĀ resonated with readers since its original publication in 1815Ā and has been retold many times for television and movies.

Self-satisfied Emma WoodhouseĀ thinks she is above romance of any kind, but when she decides she is a great matchmaker and sets out to find a wealthy husband for her friend, the sweet yet pitiable Harriet Smith, sheĀ crosses paths with the charming Mr. Knightley. Even though Emma tries to ignore her feelings for him, she ends up marrying him and realizes that ā€œPerfect happiness, even in memory, is not common.ā€

Beyond the romance,Ā 
EmmaĀ isĀ full of humor and witĀ and is alsoĀ a commentary on upper-class social manners at the turn of the nineteenth century. The title character herself, rather you love her or hate her, is both inescapably self-delusional and rather fun to imagine.

Complete andĀ 
unabridged, thisĀ elegantly designed, jacketed hardcover editionĀ featuresĀ anĀ introduction by English literature scholar Alison FraserĀ andĀ a timeline of the life and times of Jane Austen.

Essential volumes for the shelves of every classic literature lover, theĀ 
Chartwell Classics seriesĀ includes beautifully presented works and collections from some of the most important authors in literary history. Chartwell Classics are the editions of choice for the most discerning literature buffs.
