Emma, by Jane Austen, is a novel about youthful hubris and the perils of misconstrued romance. The story takes place in the fictional village of Highbury and the surrounding estates of Hartfield, Randalls, and Donwell Abbey and involves the relationships among individuals in those locations consisting of "Three or four families in a country village".
The novel was first published in December 1815 while the author was alive, with its title page listing a publication date of 1816. As in her other novels, Austen explores the concerns and difficulties of genteel women living in Georgian-Regency England; she also creates a lively comedy of manners among her characters and depicts issues of marriage, gender, age, and social status.
Before she began the novel, Austen wrote, "I am going to take a heroine whom no one but myself will much like." In the first sentence, she introduces the title character as "Emma Woodhouse, handsome, clever, and rich."
Emma is spoiled, headstrong, and self-satisfied; she greatly overestimates her own matchmaking abilities; she is blind to the dangers of meddling in other people's lives; and her imagination and perceptions often lead her astray.
Persuasion was the last novel Austen wrote, and it was published after her death. Emma was the last novel to be completed and published while she lived in Chawton. This novel has been adapted for several films, many television programs, and a long list of stage plays. It is also the inspiration for several novels.

. Je suis furax.. du coup je l'ai acheté dans une librairie du quartier convention.
Quelle subtile critique des bonnes mœurs anglaises de l'époque, où l'hypocrisie, euh pardon, la courtoisie était de mise en permanence.
Jolie romance entre Emma, l'entremetteuse qui se fourvoie si fréquemment, et M. Knightley.
A lire et à relire pour toutes celles qui aiment le genre

Set in and around the fictional village of Highbury, Surrey so we also take in the bigger houses and estates in the area. At one of the larger houses lives Emma with her father, her sister being already married. Jane Austen before she started writing this had already said that she was going to create a character that people would probably not like, but in fact Emma has been liked, and still is, as we see her develop in this tale.
Thinking herself a matchmaker so we see Emma going about trying to find a suitable suitor for Harriet, although she has one, which so Emma believes is beneath her. And with her dabbling and outspoken manner so we see the consequences of her actions, not even realising when others are in thrall to her charms.
With some unforgettable characters, such as the fussy, dithering and rather old maidenish Mr Woodhouse, we also have the non-stop talking Miss Bates, who makes a great comic character, as well as others. With Highbury also appearing here quite a bit, so the place really comes to life, instead of being just a backdrop, showing Austen was on top form and creating something with a bit more realism and substance.
Full of wit and insight into the characters this has some great sparkling dialogue and is a joy to read. A comedy of manners, as well as what we nowadays term a romantic comedy, this also takes in the place of women at the period and social status. There is lots of incident here with its dances and other events, as well as a lot of eating – so probably not the best book to read if you are on a diet.
With so many adaptations most people have already seen this, if not read it before, but it certainly pays to read this and come back to it, as it is something that is just so enjoyable.

I only gave 3 stars as I am very disappointed with the addition of a sticky label on the back with the bar code and price on. I understand you need to have these bar codes on books, but sticking it to the back of a beautifully bound book has ruined it. I took the label off and now have a sticky patch and it’s pulled some of the design off.
Abit of a let down on what it’s a Beautiful book.

I loved this book but then I am an old romantic.
Emma is a young woman who likes to think of herself as a matchmaker, however it turns out that she is not that particularly good at it. Emma herself is not interested in marriage instead she is totally dedicated to the well being of her father.
There are funny moments as embarrassing blunders occur and each character tries their upmost to be socially agreeable. Blunders! I love that word. There is a lot of visiting each other's homes and a lovely ball. The characters are hilarious, such as Mrs Elton who is full of her own importance. It's very romantic and I loved that.
Overall I would recommend this charming story to a historical fiction reader. I preferred Emma to Pride and Prejudice but really loved them both.
I have read two Jane Austen Novels now and love her writing. I shall definitely read more. Jane was an English writer who lived from 1775 to 1817. She published Emma in 1816.

Emma is a wonderful story of a wealthy but not very wise matchmaker who's meddling causes some unfortunate incidents but true to Austen there's a happy ending. Definitely worth reading.
It's surprising how many movies and adaptions have been made based on this plot - Clueless starring Alicia Silverstone and Paul Rudd and BBC adaption starring Kate Beckinsale and Mark Strong are my favourites.
