First let me tell you that this is an unfinished worked by Jane Austen, it was published until her nephew published it in her biography in 1871.
We follow the man character Emma who has been living with a rich aunt until she get married for the second time, so she goes back to her father.
Here she encounters what many Austen heroines do, the mission to find a husband. Let's remember that that was the only option for women back in that time.
I think its a great story from Austen, to bad it isn't finished, because she really shined in the siblings storytelling.
If you have an itch for Jane you just can't scratch and you have read everything else, this is a one one to pick up.
