Mr. Watson, a gout-stricken widowed clergyman, is burdened with a sizable family: two sons and four marriageable daughters! True, the youngest daughter, Emma, grew up under the guardianship of a wealthy uncle, but after his death, the girl is forced to return to her father's house. The morals of her middle sisters, consumed by their reckless pursuit of husbands, upset Emma, but she immediately finds common ground with her eldest sister, Elizabeth. Sweet and kind, Emma quickly attracts the attention of local society, but soon she will have to contend with many temptations to maintain her identity.

The best works of Jane Austen (1775–1817) remain popular worldwide to this day, but this novel has an unusual fate: the writer merely sketched out a plot line, which half a century later was creatively developed by her niece, Catherine Hubback (1818–1877), née Austen, who created a wonderful book in the best traditions of her famous aunt.
