Young and attractive Catherine Moreland has an active imagination. A voracious reader of gothic novels, she believes that their horror can unfold in real life. She but truly begins to understand life and the way of the world when she visits Bath for winter festivities and then Northanger Abbey, the eerie home of Tilneys.
Northanger Abbey is youthfully romantic and funny. Written in 1803, it was Jane Austen s first novel. Nonetheless, it is as good as any of her later novels. It got published with Persuasion in one volume after her death in 1817. It goes without saying that it has been adapted for cinema and television on many occasions.
About the Author
One of all time literary favourites, Jane Austen was born at Steventon rectory, England on December 16, 1775. She started writing poems, stories and plays as early as 1787 which she compiled in three bound notebooks. Those early works were later published as Juvenilia. Then, she wrote Lady Susan, a novella in epistolary form. However, it remained unpublished for a long time. Having written Lady Susan, she penned down six novels, four of which were published during her life as follows: Sense and Sensibility (1811), Pride and Prejudice (1813), Mansfield Park (1814) and Emma (1815). Northanger Abbey (1818) and Persuasion (1818) were published posthumously. Two of her novels The Watsons and Sanditon, though published later on, remained unfinished. Austen died on July 18, 1817.
