Northanger Abbey - Penguin Clothbound Classics (HB)

£14.99

A beautiful hardback edition of Jane Austen’s classic novel from Penguin’s Clothbound Classics series, designed by Coralie Bickford-Smith and featuring an introduction by Marilyn Butler. This collectible edition is bound in high-quality colourful, tactile cloth with foil stamped into the design.

During an eventful season at Bath, young, naïve Catherine Morland experiences the joys of fashionable society for the first time. She is delighted with her new acquaintances: flirtatious Isabella, who shares Catherine's love of Gothic romance and horror, and sophisticated Henry and Eleanor Tilney, who invite her to their father's mysterious house, Northanger Abbey. There, her imagination influenced by novels of sensation and intrigue, Catherine imagines terrible crimes committed by General Tilney. With its broad comedy and irrepressible heroine, this is the most youthful and optimistic of Jane Austen's works.
