Publisher's summary

Emma Woodhouse, age 21, is beautiful, wealthy, talented, and smart. The world lies at her feet. She wants for nothing. What could she possibly gift the world in return?

When Emma follows her unfailing instinct for romantic matchmaking, she ensures that the entwined communities of Donwell Abbey, Hartfield, and Randall's Estates in rural 19th-century England are never short of horrifying social embarrassment and misadventure.

Original source material for the movie Clueless, Emma is known for its cast of rich and lively characters, biting social commentary, and a sparkling plot. This time it is narrated by Mary Jane Wells, a multiple Earphone award- and Audie award-winning narrator known for her multi-character reads - surely a match made in heaven.

Arguably Austen's most popular novel, this timeless classic about love and marriage is vivid, captivating, and irresistibly witty.

I’ve listened over and over!

This is a lovely recording! The voices are done so
well! I’ve read all of Jane Austen’s works and it’s so nice to hear them played out. Emma is my favorite book by Miss Austen and I can’t recommend this audio version enough.

Best Narrator Ever

I’ve listened to several Emma’s and I like Mary Jane Well’s’ narration the best. She captures the personalities perfectly particularly the archness of Mrs Elton and she affectionately performs the voluble Miss Bates.
