THE STORY BEHIND IT
In Jane Austen's Northanger Abbey, Catherine Morland reads so many gothic novels that she begins to suspect her host of a dark family secret. It turns out to be all in her imagination.

Great for book clubs, English teachers, librarians, Jane Austen fans and mystery and gothic fiction readers. A funny gift for the reader whose imagination runs a little wild after dark.

Catherine Morland is the young heroine of Northanger Abbey (1817). After devouring gothic novels, she visits the old abbey of the Tilney family and becomes convinced it hides a dark secret. This chibi Catherine has her book and candle ready for the investigation. The watercolor-style illustration has straw gold, cream and candlelight yellow.
