I have never hated the "Emma" character. I was amused by her matchmaking snafoos, her friendship with the sweet Harriet Smith, her lack of maturity in discovering what was really going on around her and the endearing love and care she had for her father. Where she really shines is when she redeems herself to all she has misjudged, injured or snubbed and then realizes she loves Mr. Knightley.
Indeed Nonna - you understand the journey that Austen takes us on and why we adore Emma Woodhouse.
Thanks for sharing.
