Beautiful, clever, and rich, Emma Woodhouse is perfectly content with her single life and sees no need for either love or marriage. However, nothing delights her more than interfering in the romantic lives of others. But when she ignores the warnings of her good friend, Mr. Knightley, and attempts to arrange a suitable match for her protégée, Harriet Smith, her carefully laid plans soon unravel and have consequences that she never expected.

Emma by Jane Austen is one of six titles completing the Jane Austen collection, which includes Persuasion, Sense and Sensibility, Pride and Prejudice, Mansfield Park, and Northanger Abbey.
