Title: Northanger Abbey
Author: Jane Austen
Narrator: Lynn Redgrave
Format: Unabridged
Length: 8 hrs and 27 mins
Language: English
Release date: 11-17-15
Publisher: silksoundbooks Limited
Ratings: 4.5 of 5 out of 39 votes
Genres: Classics, British Literature
Publisher's Summary:
This is Jane Austen's lighthearted lesson in what you get for reading too many gothic novels. It is a mark of the astonishing talent of the woman, however, that even a flippant swipe at the trashy reading of the day turned out to be an elegant if extremely funny classic.
Catherine Morland is another one of those Austen girls who, in spite of her gloriously ironic portrait as a romantic heroine in training, ends up being someone whose story you'd follow to the end of the world, or at least until the end of the book. And the villains and suitors of the piece somehow acquire those extra 16 layers that Austen cannot help herself from writing.
This is as blithe and merry a piece of gothic horror as youll get, and at the same time as you're grinning at the terrifying manuscript Catherine finds in her bedroom turning out to be the laundry lists, youll be delighting in the sheer brilliance of the first of Jane Austen's great novels.

Lynne Redgrave slays!
She does such an amazing job with both the make and female voices. Mr. Thorpe was my favorite of her voices (even though he's an abominable character)!
Redgrave's spirited voice enlivens the reading.
Enjoyed Austen's early voice, particularly in her witty delivery. Vanessa Redgrave's performance swept me away.
Disappointed
As a huge fan of Jane Austin's Pride and Prejudice I was very disappointed with Northanger Abbey. Lynn Redgrave gave an incredible performance. I would surely read another book with her narration . But the storyline of this book kept me waiting and hoping for a more captivating storyline.
Love me some Jane!
Jane Austen has been a favorite author of mine since I was in junior high! this is a great narration of the unabridged version. The narrator does a wonderful job altering her voice for characters and bringing you into the story!
Bath as a marriage market...
Catherine Morland, the daughter of a clergyman, the fourth in a total of ten children, is seventeen years old and lives in Fullerton, a village in Wiltshire. She makes her first visit to Bath with Mr and Mrs Allens, her parents' friends and neighbors...
How she makes new acquaintances and gets a suiter, and how it comes to the usual conclusion after some adventures, is all the action to be expected.
The reading is superb: The dialogues are easy to follow as Lynn Redgrave rendering of the different voices is perfectly executed and convincing.
