Publisher's Summary

La jeune Catherine Morland, fille de pasteur, ingénue, profite d'une invitation pour faire ses premiers pas auprès la bonne société dans la ville d'eau de Bath. Au grès des rencontres et des amitiés, elle poursuit son séjour à l'Abbaye de Northanger. Cette demeure moyenâgeuse attise l'imagination de la jeune héroïne qui pense vivre une aventure digne de ses lectures de chevet. Elle sera confronter à un tableau bien plus réaliste.

Parodiant avec drôlerie la littérature gothique en vogue à l'époque, Jane Austen, par ce roman initiatique dépeint les mœurs de la bourgeoisie anglaise avec une ironie piquante.

Lots of gentle humour

When I was young I read Jane Austen for the romance. As an adult, I discovered that she was a clever and ironic painter of the society of her times. This book is her least romantic one and very honest.
