Emma  by Jane Austen

First published in the year 1815, the present victorian novel ‘Emma’ by famous novelist Jane Austen is about youthful hubris and the perils of misconstrued romance. The central character of the story, Emma, is spoiled, headstrong, and self-satisfied; she greatly overestimates her own matchmaking abilities; she is blind to the dangers of meddling in other people’s lives; and her imagination and perceptions often lead her astray.
