Northanger Abbey

Once upon a time, Jane Austen was a snarky teenager who had met too many goths. Gothic heroines that is. We read Northanger Abbey and found it bonkers and delightful. We found Regency social norms bonkers and stifling, much like the rooms of Bath.

Mentioned in this episode:

* The Red Tree by Caitlin Kiernan

* The Great, tv show

* The Monk by Matthew Lewis

For next time we will be reading The Scarlet Pimpernel by Emma Orczy
