Each scene is carefully crafted to capture the atmosphere of the Regency period, making the social dynamics, romance, and humor of the novel feel more vivid and accessible.


Perfect for both first-time readers and Austen enthusiasts, this edition offers a fully immersive experience, combining thoughtful annotations with detailed illustrations to make the story, themes, and historical context of Northanger Abbey more engaging and relatable. Whether you're drawn to classic literature, Regency-era romance, or coming-of-age stories, this annotated and illustrated version provides a fresh and enriching perspective on Austen's satirical masterpiece.
