Description:

Emma is one of the comic novels written by the brilliant Jane Austen, who introduces us to her charming protagonist, Emma Woodhouse, in what would be a masterpiece of 19th century narrative. From the first paragraph, she is described as "beautiful, clever and rich", but do not be fooled: she is also a bit spoiled. Austen, with her characteristic wit, warns us that she has created a heroine who, except for her, might not be to the liking of many.

The plot develops around this intelligent and hard-working young woman, determined to become the matchmaker for her friends. However, when her beloved governess and confidant decides to get married, Emma deals with the deep loneliness and immense emptiness caused by her absence. Thus begins a journey full of emotions, where she seeks to make others experience the perfection with which she visualizes her own life.

Caught in her own games of emotional manipulation, the plot evolves into an intriguing web of entanglements, misunderstandings and confusions that will challenge her self-esteem and test her ability to trust herself.

With an exquisite portrait of provincial England in the 19th century, Emma is much more than a simple novel; it is a reflection of the complexity of human relationships and a delight for lovers of literature.
