About the book

Jane Austen's Northanger Abbey follows Catherine Morland, a young woman whose enthusiasm for Gothic novels shapes the way she interprets the world around her. During a visit to Bath and later Northanger Abbey, Catherine imagines dark family secrets where more ordinary motives are at work. Austen combines romance with a playful satire of Gothic fiction, social manners and youthful imagination. When Catherine visits Northanger Abbey with Henry Tilney and his family, she begins to imagine sinister secrets hidden within the house.
