You will enjoy how Austen exposes this innate desire to imagine things in a magical or mysterious way and how we’re often disappointed with the common or mundane truth behind it.<br/><br/>As you read Northanger Abbey by Jane Austen, you will be taken back to your childhood, to a time when your imagination ran wild with the possibilities and mystery associated with new places and experiences. As you follow the story of Catherine, you’ll see yourself in her as she explores new sights and sounds in a real abbey, owned by wealthy people in high society. Her experience reading gothic novels floods and colors her view of the actual mundane nature of the places she’s in.<br/>Northanger Abbey begins to take on the symbolism of the imagined ideal that we all wanted at some point in our lives. As she comes to terms with reality, we see her struggle to accept things for what they really are, and this junction is very entertaining to read!
