Original price was: $1.50.$1.00Current price is: $1.00.
Northanger Abbey is a coming-of-age novel that parodies Gothic fiction, following the naive young protagonist Catherine Morland as she develops a better understanding of herself and the world around her during a visit to the town of Bath and the Tilney family’s estate.
The story satirizes Catherine's overactive imagination and tendency to view the world through the lens of Gothic novels, as she becomes convinced that the Tilneys are hiding a dark secret at their family home, Northanger Abbey.
Austen's novel explores themes of society, status, behavior, and the value of reading, while also poking fun at the popular Gothic fiction of the time.
