Northanger Abbey Austenov Jane (2019)

This deluxe, unabridged edition of Jane Austens Northanger Abbey features a beautiful cover, ribbon marker, luxurious endpapers, gilded edges and a glossary of Victorian and literary terms for modern readers. Originally titled Susan, the novel was written before Austens other novels but published after her death in 1817. A satire of the Gothic novel popular at the time, it is filled with weeping, frustrated romance, dark corridors and deep yearnings. At its heart are the mysterious rooms of the Abbey, which nobody seems to visit. Could they conceal a dark secret, or is there a rotten core at the heart of the house and the family within it? Catherine is determined to discover the truth, but she is distracted by the machinations, flirtations and engagements of those around her, as well as her love for the clever young Henry Tilney.
