Northanger Abbey, Large Print

More about the book

Set against the backdrop of Bath and Northanger Abbey, the story follows Catherine, an avid reader of Gothic romances, whose vivid imagination leads her to misinterpret ordinary events as sinister. Jane Austen cleverly critiques both the absurdities of the Gothic genre and the hypocrisy of polite society through Catherine's experiences. While the novel maintains a lighthearted tone, it offers a serious exploration of love and marriage, making it a unique blend of humor and social commentary.
