From the author of "Darcy's Diary" comes this sparkling retelling of Jane Austen's Emma - from Mr. Knightley's point of view. In between managing his estate and visiting his brother in London, Mr. Knightley is both exasperated and amused by his neighbour, Emma Woodhouse, whose misguided attempts to manage the affairs of the inhabitants of Highbury lead to disastrous results. The first object of her kindness, Mr. Elton, flees to Bath rather than fall in with her plans, whilst the second, Harriet Smith, is foolishly persuaded to refuse an offer of marriage. But when Frank Churchill arrives in Highbury, Mr. Knightley's amusement give sway to another emotion, for his unreasonable dislike of the handsome newcomer seems suspiciously like jealousy!
