      1992., General, Everyman's Library Call No: Fic Aus    Availability:1 of 1     At Your Library Series Title: Everyman's library (Alfred A. Knopf, Inc.)   Volume: 109Summary Note: Novel published posthumously in 1817. Northanger Abbey, which was published with Persuasion in four volumes, was written about 1798 or 1799, probably under the title "Susan." In 1803 the manuscript of "Susan" was sold to the publisher Richard Crosby, who advertised for it, but unaccountably it was not published at that time. The novel combines a satire on conventional novels of polite society with one on gothic tales of terror. Catherine Morland, the daughter of a country parson, is the innocent abroad who gains worldly wisdom: first in the fashionable society of Bath and then at Northanger Abbey itself, where she learns not to interpret the world through her reading of gothic thrillers.

      2016., Large Print Edition Call No: LP Fic Aus   Edition: Large Print ed.    Availability:1 of 1     At Your Library Summary Note: In this spirited comedy of manners Catherine Morland, a plain, unspoiled small-town girl on holiday in Bath, meets and falls in love with Henry Tilney, a handsome young clergyman. Henryœs father, believing Catherine to be wealthy, invites her to be a guest at Northanger Abbey, the familyœs country estate. Catherine, who has read too many Gothic romances and who is possessed of too vivid an imagination, views the abbey as a house of nightmarish horror an aspect of the book that gleefully parodies the fantastic Gothic romances by Ann Radcliffe and other popular writers of the period. An amusing assortment of misunderstandings and plot twists result in the satisfying romantic conclusion characteristic of the authorœs works.
