NOTES
Read by Belinda Lang
Emma is an exquisitely crafted portrait of late 18th Century society, widely considered to be Austen's most literarily accomplished work. Emma Woodhouse, self-appointed meddling matchmaker, stands to lose out on love herself if she isn't careful. Social life in the village of Highbury is dominated by the intelligent and wealthy Emma Woodhouse who has too little to occupy herself and turns to match-making on behalf of her friends and neighbours to relieve the boredom. Her schemes meet with varying degrees of success, until she herself finally learns to concentrate on her own life and leave others to live theirs without her interference. A charming, often ironic, picture of courtship and love
