Jane Austen 's much-loved novel. Will the self-confident loving Emma finally meet her match?
Emma Olsen is now a high school freshman. Despite dealing with the aftermath of her mistakes in eighth grade, things are looking up for Emma when she gets romantically involved with someone who stood up to her bullies. Unfortunately, that relationship does not last long, and Emma proceeds a series of horrible mistakes throughout the school year, one of them so bad that the Olsen family loses everything they have. Plagued with guilt, Emma feels as if the world would be better off without her, so she takes matters into her own hands. Will Emma's mom forgive her daughter for her mistakes before it's too late?
Virginia Woolf called Jane Austen "the most perfect artist among women," and Emma Woodhouse is arguably her most perfect creation. Though Austen found her heroine to be a person whom "no one but myself will much like," Emma is her most cleverly woven, riotously comedic, and pleasing novel of manners.

WITH A NEW INTRODUCTION BY GILL HORNBYHandsome, clever and rich, Emma Woodhouse has no desire to fall in love or be married. Playing Cupid for her peers is far more appealing. But when Emma's well-intentioned schemes for her friend Harriet Smith begin to go awry, Emma must navigate misunderstandings, mismatched suitors and the realisation that perhaps love was closer to home than she realised.
"Emma Woodhouse, handsome, clever, and rich, with a comfortable home and happy disposition seemed to unite some of the best blessings of existence; and had lived nearly twenty-one years in the world with very little to distress or vex her." That, of course, is about to change. Thinking herself to be the consummate matchmmaker, Emma tries to arrange a suitable match for her friend Harriet Smith. When her plans unravel, Emma discovers that she understands the feelings of others as little as she does her own heart. With its imperfect but charming heroine and its subtle exploration of relationships, Emma is often seen as Jane Austen's most perfect work. Newly designed and typeset by Waking Lion Press.
