Description

Jane Austen is one of the most important English novelists to emerge in the 18th Century. Her brilliant, satirical, and elegant novels have transcended time and earned her a place among the greatest literary figures that ever lived. Born to a clergyman in 1775, Ms. Austen's writing career began at the tender age of 14, when she completed her first novel, Love and Friendship. She would go on to thrill the world with her romantic literary tales ever after.

Features & Highlights

  • Catherine Morland reads tales of Gothic romance, yet leads a country life in Wiltshire. When she travels to Bath, she meets and falls in love with Henry Tilney. She is invited by his sister and father to stay at Northanger Abbey, where she meets all the trappings of Gothic horror that she has read about. Fortunately, she has her own good sense and irresistible but unsentimental hero, Henry Tilney.

poor production quality

Every time the chapter changed, there was a loud, high-pitched screech! I had to turn the volume way down, every time it seemed a chapter was ending. Needless to say, it was not a good situation while I was driving as I would jump from being startled. In terms of positives (and why I didn't give a one star rating), the narrator did an excellent job. By the narrator's inflections, I picked up on aspects of the book that I hadn't caught when reading the text.
