Emma Chapter 5
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
In a chapter where Emma herself does not appear we compare the Westons to the Bingleys, the Woodhouses to the Elliots, Harriet to a dog (again) and weave our own queer fantasies that Mr Knightley is jealous because he's worried Harriet will steal Emma away.
