Negative Positive
Title: Austen's novel is a timeless classic.
Review: Jane Austen's novel Emma is the story of a young woman who at first seems to be self-indulgent and egotistical. As the novel progresses, the reader discovers Emma's selfless nature as evidenced by her foregoing her own romantic ambitions to help others find happiness. The book takes an ironic turn as Emma finds love with Mr. Knightley even though throughout the novel she has used to matchmaking efforts to help others find love. Overall, I find this book to be a light-hearted love story and a refreshing change from the more serious novels of the Victorian period.
