Emma Woodhouse, aged 20 at the start of the novel, is a young, beautiful, witty, and privileged woman in Regency England. She lives on the fictional estate of Hartfield in Surrey in the village of Highbury with her elderly widowed father, a hypochondriac who is excessively concerned for the health and safety of his loved ones.

As the novel opens, Emma has just attended the wedding of Miss Taylor, her best friend and former governess. Having introduced Miss Taylor to her future husband, Mr. Weston, Emma takes credit for their marriage, and decides that she rather likes matchmaking.

The novel introduces famous and endurable characters in the form of the vile Fagin, hateful Bill Sykes, and the brooding Monk balanced on the brighter side by the hero Oliver Twist and The Artful Dodger. The tale also takes the corrupt and incompetent institutions of 19th-century England to task for making worse the very problems they set out to cure. Oliver Twist is classic Dickens with memorable characters, evocative descriptions, melodrama and a plot thick with coincidence.
