Emma Wodehouse has led a simple life, but during the course of this she at last reaps her share of the world's vexations. In this comedy of manners, the heroine learns to come to terms with the reality of other people, and with her own erring nature.
Jane Austen was born in Steventon, Hampshire, on December 16, 1775. Her father, the Reverend George Austen, was rector of Steventon, where she spent her first twenty-five years, along with her six brothers (two of them later naval officers in the Napoleonic wars) and her adored sister, Cassandra. She read voraciously from an early age, counting among her favorites the novels of Samuel Richardson, Henry Fielding, and Fanny Burney, and the poetry of William Cowper and George Crabbe. Her family was lively and affectionate and they encouraged her precocious literary efforts, the earliest dating from age twelve, which already displayed the beginnings of her comic style. Her first novels, Elinor and Marianne (1796) and First Impressions (1797), were not published. The gothic parody Northanger Abbey was accepted for publication in 1803 but was ultimately withheld by the publisher.

Such witty, profound, and hilarious process of a priviledged girl's coming-of-age! My favorite one so far of Austen's. Yet Penguin is no good edition: no introduction, and narrow margin.
评分Emma是位大小姐，最后嫁了能照顾她一辈子的父亲型男人。

评分我承认我是为了写篇关于ironic representation的essay才读的，但读了这本多少有点搬正我对Austen的偏见。
评分Emma是位大小姐，最后嫁了能照顾她一辈子的父亲型男人。
