Description
"La abadía de Northanger es el trabajo más libre y heterodoxo de Jane Austen. Aunque fue su primera obra, el destino y un editor harto negligente quisieron que apareciera después de su muerte. Y esto es relevante, porque en cierto modo La abadía de Northanger es el Quijote de las novelas de fantasmas, tanto por la actitud de su protagonista, Catherine Morland, una joven fantasiosa fascinada por la lectura de novelas góticas que quiere vivir aventuras y misterios mientras su entorno solo se preocupa por buscarle un marido conveniente, como por la parodia hilarante de las novelas de este género. Todo ello se traduce en una obra tan llena de referencias literarias como fuente de inspiración y disfrute para nuevas generaciones de lectores y lectoras."--,Amazon.es.
Description
Catherine Morland loves nothing more than reading a romantic novel, but as one of ten children she doesn't have much time for reading or for romance. When she is seventeen, her wealthy neighbours invite her to spend the winter season with them in Bath - to experience balls, the theatre and other social delights for the first time. Catherine makes friends with the passionate Isabella, and dances with a handsome man called Henry, and it seems that all her dreams are coming true. But real life doesn't always play out like a novel, and Catherine will have to overcome many obstacles before she can find her happy ending...
