Friday Favorites: Emma - Mrs. Elton Sets Her Sights on Jane Fairfax
Description
Mrs. Elton is settling into Highbury, and has yet to give Emma any reason to reconsider her initial opinion of her. In fact, Mrs. Elton fixes on another young lady as the target of her attention, none other than Jane Fairfax. What is most surprising to Emma is that Jane Fairfax seems to go along with it, even though Emma is sure she knows better. A discussion with her friends Mrs. Weston and Mr. Knightley reassures Emma of one important thing, however, that Mr. Knightley seems uninterested in Jane Fairfax as anything other than a friend. This week's Friday Favorites is a peek into the dynamics of Highbury society, and as new connections form, let them help you connect with a deeper state of relaxation as you fall into soft and gentle sleep.
