Description
Handsome, clever, and rich, Emma Woodhouse has many advantages - but Emma's supreme confidence in her own abilities is sometimes misplaced. When her scheme to find a suitable husband for young Harriet Smith goes badly awry, Emma learns the folly of her ways - and meets her own match in the process - but only after a series of painful misunderstandings.
