A special edition featuring beautiful heritage wallpaper patterns from her own home in Hampshire, these collectable paperbacks are a must for all Jane Austen fans. From Macmillan Collector�_Ts Library; a series of stunning classics that make perfect gifts or a treat for any book lover. Oft-copied but never bettered, Jane Austen�_Ts Emma is a remarkable comedy of manners. Austen follows the charming but insensitive Emma Woodhouse as she sets out on an ill-fated career of match-making in the little town of Highbury. Taking the pretty but dreary Harriet Smith as her subject, Emma creates misunderstandings and chaos as she tries to find Harriet a suitor, until she begins to realize it isn�_Tt the lives of others she must try to transform. With original illustrations by the celebrated Hugh Thomson, this Macmillan Collector�_Ts Library edition also features bonus material by Jane Austen expert and curator of Jane Austen's House Sophie Reynolds.
