A Daring ReImagining Of An Austen Classic From The Unflinching Viewpoint Of The Misunderstood Miss Bates.Henrietta Bates, The Iconic Bore Of AustenS Emma, Is The Opposite Of Handsome, Clever, And Rich Emma: She Is Plain, IllEducated, And Impoverished. An Unmarried Woman Of Quite A Different Order From That NovelS Proudly Single Heroine, She Is An Object Of Scorn And Pity, Whose Survival Depends Upon The Generosity Of Her Neighbors Which She Barters For With An Unrelenting Shower Of Banal And Grateful Chatter.But What If The Woman We See In Emma Were Actually Deliberately Assuming A Role, Donning A Mask, As A Means Of Managing An Untenable Situation? What If There Was A World Of Difference Between Her Inward And Outward Voice? What Would The WoodhousesS Highbury Look Like From Her Perspective?Miss Bates By Catherine Cliff Imagines Answers To These Questions As It Chronicles Henrietta BatesS Unexpected And, At Times, Violent Life, Navigating A World With No ReadyMade Opportunities, Where The Stakes Are Of The Highest Order. In A Debut That Is By Turns Comedic, Tragic, Startling, And Altogether Brilliant, Miss Bates Turns AustenS Poignant And Ridiculous Side Character Into A Feminist Force Who Understands Innately The Life She Has Been Dealt And How To Slyly Play It To Her Advantage.This Is No Marriage Plot; It Is A Spinster Plot. Or Maybe, The SpinsterS Plot.
