Description



Book Synopsis



Todo empezó por querer leer un buen libro... ¿Era mucho pedir? En 1935, de camino a Londres, Allen Lane se detuvo en un andén del ferrocarril para buscar algo interesante que leer durante el viaje. La ofertase limitaba a revistas populares y libros en tapa blanda de mala calidad. La desilusión y el posterior disgusto de Lane ante los títulos disponibles lo llevaron a inventar el libro de bolsillo, a fundar una empresa y a cambiar el mundo.

«Creíamos que existía un enorme público para los libros hechos con inteligencia a bajo precio, y lo apostamos todo por ello.» -Sir Allen Lane, 1902-1970, fundador de Penguin Books

Los hábitos de lectura han cambiado desde 1935, pero en Penguin seguimos creyendo en publicar los mejores libros parael disfrute de todos, y en que los buenos libros publicados con pasión y responsabilidad mejoran el mundo.

Emma cuenta la historia de una inteligente y laboriosa joven empeñada en hacer de celestina de todas sus amistades. Cuando su institutriz, amiga y confidente decide contraer matrimonio, Emma Woodhouse se queda sola con sus sentimientos y se enfrenta al vacío de su existencia, así como a la penosa tarea de intentar que los demás lleven una vida tan perfecta como la suya. Todos sus trabajos de manipulación sentimental crean a su alrededor una telaraña de enredos, malentendidos y confusiones que ponen a prueba su confianza en sí misma.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

Jane Austen's best-selling novel, Emma, is a romantic comedy about love, marriage, and personal growth.

Set in Highbury, England, in the early 19th century, Emma Woodhouse is a beautiful, clever, and single young heiress who is very content with her life and has no aspirations of marriage. What makes her happiest is acting as a matchmaker and interfering in the romantic lives of friends and family. However, after an entertaining sequence of comic mishaps and misunderstandings, Emma learns that what she wants is right in front of her.

With its imperfect but delightful heroine and witty and subtle exploration of relationships, marriage, and social status, Emma is frequently referred to as one of Jane Austen's most significant works.



About the Author



Jane Austen nació en la rectoría de Steventon, al noreste de Hampshire, el 16 de diciembre de 1775. Séptima hija del reverendo George Austen y de Cassandra Leigh, Jane Austen fue una destacada novelista británica que, gracias a su gran habilidad para retratar a la sociedad en la que vivió, es considerada como uno de los clásicos de la literatura inglesa. Las novelas de Jane Austen son un reflejo de la nobleza rural inglesa de la época; gracias a su ironía e ingenio y a lo atractivo de su narrativa, se mantienen como un referente de la literatura universal.

Su obra ha sido adaptada al cine, al teatro y a la televisión en numerosas ocasiones. Durante la década de 1790 escribió los primeros borradores de sus exitosas novelas Sentido y sensibilidad, La abadía de Northanger y Orgullo y prejuicio, inspiradas en el color local de Kent y Bath. Entre 1810 y 1817 verían la luz Emma, Mansfield Park y Persuasión. Austen falleció en 1817 en Winchester.
