Northanger Abbey - Eleanor's Tale

Jane Austen chronicled Catherine Morland's successful foray to Bath in her delightful early novel Northanger Abbey. In the background stands another young lady, lovely, amiable and accomplished but living in the shadow of her dominating father. Such is Eleanor Tilney. Now, her own story of long-requited but impossible love can be told. The authoress hopes that those, including Miss Austen herself who knows "e;no one more entitled, by unpretending merit, or better prepared by habitual suffering, to receive and enjoy felicity"e;, are satisfied by this relation of events.
