Description
Northanger Abbey
Author: Jane Austen
Hard cover in excellent condition
Northanger Abbey by Jane Austen is a satirical novel that follows the naïve and imaginative Catherine Morland as she enters society and experiences her first tastes of friendship, romance, and disappointment. Influenced by her love of Gothic novels, Catherine allows her fantasies to colour her perceptions, particularly during her stay at the Tilney family’s estate, where she suspects dark secrets that exist only in her imagination. Austen uses Catherine’s misadventures to parody Gothic conventions while also critiquing social pretensions, materialism, and the process of growing up. Through gentle irony and moral insight, the novel charts Catherine’s development from innocence and credulity to clearer judgment and emotional maturity.
