| Publisher Description: 'Northanger Abbey' was one of Jane Austen's earliest novels, although it wasn't published until after her death. Besides exploring social and romantic themes, it also satirised the excesses of the 'gothic' novels that were popular at the time. In this context the famous horror writer H.P. Lovecraft described it as a "merited rebuke to a school which had sunk far towards absurdity". |
