Amazing historical novel

What a great read. It takes parts of history, and wove them together as a tapestry, and towards the end of the book you get to see the full tapestry pulled all together. The story goes back-and-forth from present past of World War II but it flows amazingly well.

I so enjoyed the book. Could not put it down.
It really makes you think of people in their situation handled their life back then. It also really puts in perspective how people and us and other tabloids only report half truths

I also grew up in the 70s & 80’s in a small town. This book brought back so many overall memories and yet had an amazing story about a young immigrant coming-of-age! It was an excellent read

Story
Austen wrote, 'I am going to take a heroine whom no-one but myself will much like' and thus introduces the handsome, clever, rich - and flawed, Emma Woodhouse. Emma is perfectly content with her life and sees no need for either love or marriage; nothing however delights her more than matchmaking her fellow residents of Highbury. But when she ignores the warnings of her good friend Mr. Knightley and attempts to arrange a suitable match for her protegee Harriet Smith, her carefully laid plans soon unravel and have consequences that she never expected.
