Emma: With 13 Illustrations and a Free Audio Link.

Emma is the embodiment of what a young woman should be in Regency England. Growing up with an indulgent father and lack of a mother has left her spoiled and used to getting her own way.

A cautionary tale about the evils of interference, matchmaking, and good intentions turned askew. Emma is the study of a young woman raised without sufficient discipline or occupation. She delights in meddling in the romantic affairs of everyone around her. Handsome, clever and rich, Emma's only true critic and voice of reason is Mr. Knightley, a gentleman whose opinion she values greatly. In the end, Emma is forced to acknowledge both her own lack of insight into the motives of others, and admit her need for a companion who can challenge her to become a better woman.

As in her other novels, Austen explores the concerns and difficulties of genteel women living in Georgian-Regency England; she also creates a lively comedy of manners.
