Northanger Abbey (Illustrated by Hugh Thomson)

Catherine Morland, a seventeen-year-old with a penchant for Gothic novels, embarks on a journey into the upper-class society of Bath, where she meets the charming Henry Tilney and his family. Invited to Northanger Abbey, she lets her imagination run wild, misinterpreting the family's dynamics and creating embarrassing situations. Through her experiences, Catherine learns that reality differs vastly from fiction. This novel serves as both a satire of Gothic literature and a coming-of-age story, reflecting Jane Austen's views on contemporary writing.
