Jane Austen's first novel - published posthumously in 1818 - tells the story of Catherine Morland and her dangerously sweet nature, innocence, and sometime self-delusion. Though Austen's fallible heroine is repeatedly drawn into scrapes while vacationing at Bath and during her subsequent visit to Northanger Abbey, Catherine eventually triumphs, blossoming into a discerning woman who learns truths about love, life, and the heady power of literature. The satirical novel pokes fun at the gothic novel while earnestly emphasizing caution to the female sex.

"This story was inspired by a remark of Mark Twain's to the effect that it was a pity that the best part of life came at the beginning and the worst part at the end. By trying the experiment upon only one man in a perfectly normal world I have scarcely given his idea a fair trial. Several weeks after completing it, I discovered an almost identical plot in Samuel Butler's 'Note-books'."

"We have all been more or less to blame... every one of us, excepting Fanny." Taken from the poverty of her parents' home, Fanny Price is brought up with her rich cousins at Mansfield Park, acutely aware of her humble rank and with only her cousin Edmund as an ally. When Fanny's uncle is absent in Antigua, Mary Crawford and her brother Henry arrive in the neighbourhood, bringing with them London glamour and a reckless taste for flirtation. As her female cousins vie for Henry's attention, and even Edmund falls for Mary's dazzling charms, only Fanny remains doubtful about the Crawfords' influence and finds herself more isolated than ever.

"The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde" is the original title of a novel written by the Scottish author Robert Louis Stevenson that was first published in 1886. It is about a London lawyer named Gabriel John Utterson who investigates strange occurrences between his old friend, Dr Henry Jekyll and the misanthropic Edward Hyde. The novella's impact is such that it has become a part of the language, with the phrase "Jekyll and Hyde" coming to mean a person who is vastly different in moral character from one situation to the next.

A Classically Depressing Read----Lawsy!
If a person wasn't depressed when they started this book, it certainly would follow after. I must confess that I only got halfway through. I remember my mother as a kid referring to Cathy and Heathcliff glowingly as a testament to enduring love. I forget the mindset of martyrdom some equate to "love". This was the largest collection of disgusting human beings I had the displeasure of coming to know in a book. I have to battle my own critical and negative inner voice without inviting the hate and revenge filled ravings of others even though they are fictional. I read to be uplifted as well as entertained. The book is eloquently and well written and the narration by Flo Gibson is perfect. She is one of my all time favorite narrators. Before giving up on it after all these many hours of listening, I quickly read some notes on the book in Wikipedia to see if there was going to be a change for the better in the story line.....nope, not much.
