About this listen
Following the runaway success of her stunning rendition of Pride and Prejudice, award-winning narrator Alison Larkin returns - breathing new life into Jane Austen's Emma. Celebrating the 200th anniversary of the book, Larkin - a witty and always original voice - is the perfect vessel to bring this classically satirical novel to a new audience. A fresh and hugely entertaining listen, Larkin, also an acclaimed comedienne and the best-selling author of The English American, joins her voice deftly with Austen's clever style and the result is pure, boundless fun.

Jane Austen at her best with the best narration!
Would you consider the audio edition of Emma to be better than the print version?
Jane Austen and Alison Larkin are at their best together! Larkin is able to bring out all the wit and fun and laughter--as well as the inherent drama in this classic story. I had forgotten how relevant so much of this novel is to many of the emotions and situations we experience today. Get ready for a great listen that will remind you of how amazing things happen when two talents meet!
What did you like best about this story?
The new life that Larkin is able to bring to this great Jane Austen story.
Have you listened to any of Alison Larkin’s other performances? How does this one compare?
Larkin is a trained actress who has appeared in London and on Broadway and that gives her an ability to bring out the drama in every character and deliver every sentence with its full meaning. In addition, as a best selling writer herself, she knows how to build the narrative and deliver just the right amount of excitement to every scene.
Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?
I like to listen to it at every chance I got--but it took me several times because I didn't want to miss a word!
Any additional comments?
Larkin brings out the best in Jane Austen. If you love Jane Austen you will love this experience!
