Jane Austen - Emma

Emma

Synopsis:

Beautiful, clever, rich - and single - Emma Woodhouse is perfectly content with her life and sees no need for either love or marriage. Nothing, however, delights her more than interfering in the romantic lives of others. But when she ignores the warnings of her good friend Mr Knightley and attempts to arrange a suitable match for her protegee Harriet Smith, her carefully laid plans soon unravel and have consequences that she never expected. With its imperfect but charming heroine and its witty and subtle exploration of relationships, Emma is often seen as Jane Austen's most flawless work.

Sinopsis:

Entre los muchos atractivos de esta obra maestra de la literatura romántica cabe destacar la magistral traducción de José María Valverde. Jane Austen logra retratar con exquisitez y genialidad la Inglaterra rural de principios del siglo XIX en esta deliciosa historia de confusiones amorosas y delicados sentimientos, donde la señorita Emma Woodhouse, en su empeño por hacer de celestina y de procurar la felicidad amorosa de todas sus amigas, acaba descuidando su propio corazón.
