本書的寫法是以一封封由珍.奧斯汀寫給姊姊Cassandra的信,來銜接故事主題,如此活潑的寫法更能呼應書中的女主角Emma令人捉摸不定的性格。珍.奧斯汀曾經表示Emma「除了她自己之外沒有人會喜歡的女主角」,相較於珍.奧斯汀其他小說中的女主角,Emma的確有許多缺點,也有許多地方令人討厭,但也最「人性」,因此讀起來也更能讓讀者得到共鳴。

Following her governess’s marriage, wealthy, spoilt Emma Woodhouse seeks new company and new amusement.

Ignoring the warnings of her friend Mr Knightley, she begins a series of terrible blunders.

Can you solve any of the mysteries before Emma does?

~ EMMA ~
