Northanger Abbey, English edition

von Jane Austen

The first of Austen's major works to be completed (it was revised in 1803 and again in 1816-17), Northanger Abbey was published five months after Austen's death in July 1817, together with Persuasion. The 1817 text, whose singularly frustrating course to publication Wolfson recounts, is the basis for this freshly edited and annotated edition.
