Emma: 200th-Anniversary Annotated Edition (Penguin Classics Deluxe Edition) by Jane Austen

5.0

To paraphrase a line of dialogue from Emma, "This is a book I cannot presume to praise." Jane Austen's genius. Can words even describe it? Emma is a wealthy young women who tries to order her small provincial world to her liking but can't quite manage it. This is the Jane Austen novel commonly described as Jane Austen's detective story, and you will see why when you read it. A brilliant classic.
