This audiobook is narrated by an AI Voice. "Handsome, clever, and rich" — Emma Woodhouse has everything except a sense of her own limits. Convinced she has a gift for matchmaking, she takes on Harriet Smith as her latest project and persuades her to refuse an honest farmer in favour of grander prospects.

Mr Elton the vicar disappoints. The dashing Frank Churchill complicates. Jane Fairfax, accomplished and infuriatingly reserved, becomes an object of Emma's suspicion. And through it all Mr Knightley, sixteen years her senior, is the one person in Highbury who tells her the truth about herself.

Every match Emma arranges goes wrong. By the time she understands the harm she has done, she has also discovered a truth about her own heart she was the last to see.

First published in 1815, Emma is Jane Austen's most intricate comedy of manners and one of the great English novels: a Regency romance, a village satire, and a portrait of a heroine growing up in public. This unabridged audiobook edition presents the complete original text.
