Northanger abbey

Más información sobre el libro

In this modern re-imagining of a Gothic classic, seventeen-year-old Catherine 'Cat' Morland has lived a sheltered life in rural Dorset, yearning for adventure. When her wealthy neighbors, the Allens, invite her to the Edinburgh Festival, she hopes for excitement. However, her initial experiences are lackluster as Susie Allen is preoccupied with shopping and Andrew Allen with the Fringe. A Highland Dance class introduces Cat to Henry Tilney, a charming gentleman whose family home, Northanger Abbey, intrigues her. She also meets Bella Thorpe, who shares her love for supernatural novels, but Bella's brother John proves to be an annoyance, complicating Cat's feelings for Henry. Fortunately, General Tilney invites Cat to stay at Northanger Abbey with Henry and his sister Eleanor. Cat's imagination runs wild with visions of ancient abbeys, secret chambers, and ghosts, all while dreaming of romance with Henry. However, the reality of life at the abbey is far more unsettling than the fantasies she has conjured, revealing that the world outside her novels can be disturbingly different from the tales she adores.
