Clicca qui per l'edizione "Storie senza tempo". Una storia d'amore sboccia nella cittadina termale inglese di Bath tra un giovane e benestante pastore anglicano e la protagonista del romanzo, Catherine Morland. Creduta una ricca ereditiera, Catherine viene invitata dal padre del fidanzato nella residenza di famiglia, l'ex-abbazia di Northanger. Suggestionata dal luogo e ancor più dalle intense letture di romanzi dell'orrore all'epoca in gran voga, la giovane protagonista, in un classico scambio tra fantasia e realtà,vive banali eventi quotidiani alterandoli alla luce di immaginarie atmosfere di terrore. Una serie di malintesi, frutto della sua fantasia sovreccitata, mette a repentaglio il rapporto sentimentale appena nato, pregiudicato anche dalla scoperta delle sue reali condizioni economiche. Celebrazione dei riti d' iniziazione sociale della borghesia inglese di provincia a cavallo tra Sette e Ottocento, quest'opera della Austin non si esaurisce nella storia di una contrastata passione, ma rappresenta una sottile parodia del romanzo sentimentale e soprattutto del romanzo gotico, che resta di grande attualità ancora oggi.
