Title: Love the novel, hate the introduction
Review: Please don't misunderstand me: I love Jane Austen's Emma. I love everything by Jane Austen. What I don't love about this edition of the book is the introduction. Margaret Drabble obviously doen't care for the book, especially the heroine Emma Woodhouse. I have no idea why they would publish such an unfavorable introduction with the novel. Also, if you read the intro but have never read the novel, you're getting the entire plot line, which is only good if you're still in and writting a book report.But, if you're just looking for a cheap copy of Emma, then by all means, buy this version. Just please don't dampen the wonderful experience of reading Jane Austen by reading the horrible introduction.
