Emma (PAPERBACK)  | Released: 15 Jul. 2014

She’s young, she’s beautiful, she’s witty. And in the arrogance of her youth, she’s thrown herself into the game of pitting one heart against the other. But the heart’s a wily old thing, and twenty-year-old Emma Woodehouse must learn the hard way that the hearts of those around her cannot always be led on a merry string through the circuitous paths of love. Set in Regency England, Jane Austen’s Emma is a delightful read about misconstrued romances and daily life in a small town. About The Author: Jane Austen, born in December 1775 in Hampshire, England, is one of the most well-known and widely-read English novelists of all times. Jane’s fascination with words and with the world of stories, began quite early. Between 1811 to 1816, Jane started to anonymously publish her works. Sense and Sensibility, Pride and Prejudice, Mansfield Park, and Emma were all published during this time. Austen died in July 1817. It was only after her death that her identity was revealed to the public. Though her work had achieved a fair amount of fame and financial success while she was still alive, Austen’s transformation into one of the greatest writers in English history began only after her death. Today, Austen’s works have become an important part of popular culture.
