I found this book very interesting, there mayb not much on the actual story, howeva she portrays Emma in such a captivating way. As the main person is always perfect, howeva Emma is not. The real enjoyment of this book is in the use of her language....the irony plays a large role, like in many of her books. It was a pleaure to reda and have read three times since. I advise all those who enjoy the writer to play with words rather than reading the simple plot. As Austen's books all depend on the reader to read between the lines.
