Jane Austen's feistiest heroine in a gorgeous special edition to celebrate the 250th Anniversary of her birth.
The beloved author's feistiest heroine in a gorgeous special edition to celebrate the 250th Anniversary of Austen's birth.
A dazzling pocket-sized special anniversary edition bound in real cloth with foiling, sprayed edges and a ribbon marker to celebrate the 250th anniversary of Jane Austen’s birth. Part of a collectable series inspired by Jane Austen’s life and work.
Oft-copied but never bettered, Jane Austen’s Emma is a remarkable comedy of manners. Austen follows the charming but insensitive Emma Woodhouse as she sets out on an ill-fated career of match-making in the little town of Highbury. Taking the pretty but dreary Harriet Smith as her subject, Emma creates misunderstandings and chaos as she tries to find Harriet a suitor, until she begins to realize it isn’t the lives of others she must try to transform.
With original illustrations by the celebrated Hugh Thomson and bonus material about the design.
