Austen in Adaptation - 'Emma' (2009)

    
        
Hello!

I'll eventually get around to re-reading Austen's 'Emma', which is one of my favorites - however it is not on my university reading list so I'm afraid I won't be able to properly get back into it until Easter. But because I need a dose of matchmaking chaos I am watching the BBC 2009 adaptation with Romola Garai as Emma herself and the lovely Jonny Lee Miller as Mr. Knightly. I always enjoy this version, mainly for Garai's interpretation as Emma - she's so quick and cheeky - everything good about the character. 

So, I'm going to get back to watching that for the evening and tomorrow I will talk to you about Shakespeare's 'Twelfth Night' as I have my seminar tomorrow afternoon! 

Happy reading! 

Em x
