Storyline
| Plot Summary |
When Catherine Morland is given the opportunity to stay with the childless Allen family in Bath, she is hoping for an adventure of the type she has been reading in novels. Soon introduced to society, she meets Isabella Thorpe and her brother John, a good friend of her own brother, James. She also meets Henry Tilney, a handsome young man from a good family and his sister, Eleanor. Invited to visit the Tilney estate, Northanger Abbey, she has thoughts of romance but soon learns that status, class and money are all equally important when it comes to matters of the heart.

| Quotes |
[last lines]
Catherine Morland: He thought I was rich? Henry Tilney: It was Thorpe who misled him at first. Thorpe, who hoped to marry you himself. He thought you were Mr. Allen's heiress and he exaggerated Mr. Allen's birth to my father. You were only guilty of not being as rich as you were supposed to be. For that he turned you out of the house. Catherine Morland: I thought you were so angry with me, you told him what you knew. Which would have justified any discourtesy. Henry Tilney: No! The discourtesy was all his. I-I have broken with my father, Catherine, I may never speak to him again. Catherine Morland: What did he say to you? Henry Tilney: Let me instead tell you what I said to him. I told him that I felt myself bound to you, by honor, by affection, and by a love so strong that nothing he could do could deter me from... Catherine Morland: From what? Henry Tilney: Before I go on, I should tell you there's a pretty good chance he'll disinherit me. I fear I may never be a rich man, Catherine. Catherine Morland: Please, go on with what you were going to say! Henry Tilney: Will you marry me, Catherine? Catherine Morland: Yes! Yes I will! Yes! [They kiss, and she backs him into a wall in her passion] [voiceover] The Voice of Jane Austen: To begin perfect happiness at the respective ages of 26 and 18 is to do pretty well. Catherine and Henry were married, and in due course the joys of wedding gave way to the blessing of a christening. The bells rang and everyone smiled. No one more than so than Eleanor, whose beloved's sudden ascension to title and fortune finally allowed them to marry. I leave it to be settled whether the tendency of this story be to recommend parental tyranny or to reward filial disobedience. See more » |
