| Publisher Description: Northanger Abbey (/ˈnɔːrθ ŋər/) was the first of Jane Austen's novels to be completed for publication, in 1803. However, it was not published until after her death in 1817, along with another novel of hers, Persuasion. Northanger Abbey is a satire of Gothic novels, which were quite popular at the time, in 1798-99 This coming-of-age story revolves around Catherine Morland, a young and na ve "heroine", who entertains the reader on her journey to a better understanding of the world and those around her In the course of the novel, she discovers that she differs from those other women who crave wealth or social acceptance, as instead she wishes only to have happiness supported by genuine morality |
