What follows is a beautiful and fascinating tale of romance intrigue and first love in a book that has become one of the most popular and celebrated works of the 19th century Jane Austens Northanger Abbey is presented here in its original and unabridged format and is narrated by renowned audiobook performer Sara Nichols best known for her performances of Charlotte Bronts Jane Eyre Jane Austens Persuasion and Willa Cathers Prairie Trilogy
