"Mr. Watson has four daughters of marriageable age. The youngest, the refined Emma, finds her two sisters' husband-hunting ways to be off-putting, but takes refuge in the friendship of her dignified eldest sister. Austen varies favorite themes in this novel, left unfinished in the wake of her father's death in 1803."
""This fragment of a novel was written by Jane Austin about 1803-1805, but was not published until 1871, as part of James Edward Austen-Leigh's Memoir (Jane Austen had left it untitled; the title "The Watsons" was provided by Austen-Leigh). It describes Emma Watson's return, after a long absence, to her family, who are on the lower financial fringes of the "genteel". It is not clear why Jane Austen did not continue this fragment - perhaps because of her father's death; or because she was discouraged by the fact that after she succeed in selling her first novel (Susan, an earlier version of Northanger Abbey, for a nominal sum in 1803), the publisher decided not to publish after all, and sat on the manuscript; or because she did not want to sustain the tone of almost "painful realism" (according to Jenkins) with which she had begun.""
"En esta obra inconclusa de Jane Austen, Emma Watson asiste a su primer baile, y su belleza e ingenuidad hacen que todas las miradas se centren en ella. Pero la novela propone que tal vez eso no es necesariamente lo único que conduce a la felicidad para una joven en la Inglaterra previctoriana. Una vez más, Jane Austen escribe sobre la condición de la mujer de su época, su limitado papel en la sociedad y su falta de recursos propios."
"""The Watsons"" is a delightful fragment, whose spirited heroine Emma Watson finds her marriage opportunities limited by poverty and pride."@en
"Jane Austen's The Watsons (1871) was written around 1803-1805. It presents the story of Emma Watson's return to her family after a long time away. Facing severe financial problems, the only hope for this family of four daughters and an invalid father is to get the girls married before their father's death. Though Austen did not complete this work, the fragment includes a segment by her nephew commenting on how she intended to finish the novel."@en
"The Watsons, which was probably written around 1804, is one of several incomplete works published after Austen's death. The novel is similar in mood to her later Mansfield Park, and Lady Susan, a novelette in letters."@en

"In this unfinished work by Jane Austen, Emma Watson attends her first dance, and her beauty and naivety have all eyes on her. But the novel proposes that perhaps that's not necessarily the only road to happiness for a young woman in pre-Victorian England. Once again, Jane Austen writes about the plight of women during her time, their limited role in society, and their lack of any resources of their own."
