Emma Woodhouse is a unique woman and the heroine of Jane Austen's fourth published novel. Emma schemes to find a suitable husband for one of her friends and finds out in the process that she understands others just as little as she understands herself. Considered a classic and one of Austen's most well-known and regarded novels, it is well worth the read.
