In this unfinished work by Jane Austen, Emma Watson attends her first dance, and her beauty and naivety have all eyes on her. But the novel proposes that perhaps that's not necessarily the only road to happiness for a young woman in pre-Victorian England. Once again, Jane Austen writes about the plight of women during her time, their limited role in society, and their lack of any resources of their own. "En esta obra inconclusa de Jane Austen, Emma Watson asiste a su primer baile, y su belleza e ingenuidad hacen que todas las miradas se centren en ella. Pero la novela propone que tal vez eso no es necesariamente lo unico que conduce a la felicidad para una joven en la Inglaterra previctoriana. Una vez mas, Jane Austen escribe sobre la condicion de la mujer de su epoca, su limitado papel en la sociedad y su falta de recursos propios. "
