Description: Emma Woodhouse, handsome, clever, and rich, with a comfortable ì home and happy disposition seemed to unite some of the best ì blessings of existence; and had lived nearly twenty-one years in ì the world with very little to distress or vex her. So begins Jane ì Austen's comic masterpiece Emma. In Emma, Austen's ì prose brilliantly elevates, in the words of Virginia Woolf, the ì trivialities of day-to-day existence, of parties, picnics, and ì country dances of early-nineteenth-century life in the English ì countryside to an unrivaled level of pleasure for the reader. At ì the center of this world is the inimitable Emma Woodhouse, a ì self-proclaimed matchmaker who, by the novel's conclusion, just ì may find herself the victim of her own best intentions.
