The Complete Northanger Horrid Novel Collection (9 Books of Gothic Romance and Horror)

Regina Maria Roche

0/5 ( ratings)

What came to be known as the Northanger Horrid Novels were seven early works of Gothic fiction mentioned in Jane Austen's book Northanger Abbey. Originally these works were thought to have been fake, made up by Austen to parody contemporary Gothic novels. However, more recent research revealed that the books were entirely real, sparking new interest in them.

A total of nine early Gothic novels are mentioned in the text of Northanger Abbey, although only the first seven have become known as the "Horrid Novels". This collection contains all nine works, including:
Castle of Wolfenbach by Eliza Parsons
The Necromancer; or, The Tale of the Black Forest by Ludwig Flammenberg
The Mysterious Warning, A German Tale by Eliza Parsons
Horrid Mysteries by the Marquis de Grosse
Clermont, A Tale by Regina Maria Roche
The Midnight Bell by Francis Lathom
Orphan of the Rhine by Eleanor Sleath
The Mysteries of Udolpho by Ann Radcliffe
The Italian, or the Confessional of the Black Penitents by Ann Radcliffe

This edition also includes a foreword and editor’s notes about each of the works.

This material was NOT merely scanned from an ink-and-paper book, like many Kindle e-books are. All e-books offered by Di Lernia Publishers are hand-edited and hand-formatted.

Language: English

Pages: 3709

Format: Kindle Edition
