This Penguin Classics Deluxe Edition celebrates 200 years of Austen's beloved novel. With a beautiful cover designed by illustrator Dadu Shin and comprehensive notes sourced from the Jane Austen Collection,this is an edition to be treasured by students and collectors alike. With its imperfect but charming heroine and its witty and subtle exploration of relationships,Emma is often seen as Jane Austen's most flawless work. Beautiful,clever,rich-and single-Emma Woodhouse is perfectly content with her life and sees no need for either love or marriage. Nothing,however,delights her more than interfering in the romantic lives of others. But when she ignores the warnings of her good friend Mr. Knightley and attempts to arrange a suitable match for her protégée Harriet Smith,her carefully laid plans soon unravel and have consequences that she never expected.
