A magnificently engaging story about growing up, Northanger Abbey is frequently alluded to as Jane Austen's "Gothic parody." Decrepit palaces, locked rooms, secretive chests, mysterious notes, and overbearing dads give the story an uncanny air, yet one with a strongly mocking turn.The story's far-fetched female protagonist is Catherine Morland, a naive seventeen-year-old girl from a nation parsonage. While putting in half a month in Bath with a family companion, Catherine meets and experiences passionate feelings for Henry Tilney, who welcomes her to visit his family home, Northanger Abbey. When there, Catherine, an incredible per user of Gothic thrill rides, lets the shadowy environment of the old house fill her brain with horrible doubts. What is the secret encompassing the passing of Henry's mom? Is the family disguising awful confidentiality inside the rich rooms of the Abbey? Might she at any point trust Henry, or would he say he is essential for an insidious trick? Catherine tracks down horrendous signs on the most mundane occasions until Henry convinces her to see the risk in mistaking life for craftsmanship.Executed with cheerful energy, Northanger Abbey is a carefree, yet unsentimental discourse on adoration and marriage.
