Jane Austen

Emma

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

I may have lost my heart, but not my selfcontrol." Most interesting of all Jane Austen's heroines, Emma is the most flawed, the most infuriating and the most endearing. With a wisp of gentle satire on provincial balls and drawing rooms, Emma wanders along the way encountering the sweet Harriet Smith, the chatty Miss Bates, and her absurd father Mr. Woodhouse. Resisting to romance of all kinds, she fails to recognize her own feelings. Wrapped in genteel comedy of manners, the novel encapsulates fascinating episodes of Emma's meddling and her overestimation as a matchmaker garnished in Austen's delicious irony, thus rightly entitling Jane Austen as 'Prose Shakespeare'.

Autorenporträt

Jane Austen (1775-1817) was an English author born in Hampshire, England. She's best-known for her novels in which she critiques 18th century society and displays her characteristically sharp wit. Austen's most famous works include Sense and Sensibility, 1811, Pride and Prejudice, 1813, and Emma, 1816. Although her works have now been translated and printed in editions across the globe, Austen was relatively unknown during her lifetime, publishing her novels anonymously.
