Northanger Abbey is actually Jane Austen's first completed novel.

Buy it yourself. Jane made changes immediately, including changing the protagonist's name from Susan to Catherine. Soon, Jane died of illness at the age of 41. Her brother and copywriter Henry named the book Northanger Abbey, which was published alongside Jane's last novel, Persuasion.
Northanger Abbey is considered the lightest and humorous of Jane Austen's six novels. Although the theme is still the conflict of marriage, status, wealth, and love, as well as the growth and awakening of the heroine, this time a parody of the popular Gothic novels was added. Northanger Castle adds suspense and interest to the story. The film also makes a full article here, presenting Catherine's fantasies and dreams in a controlled and visual manner, making it slightly different from other fresh British sketches.
The film is part of the Jane Austen Season launched by ITV in the spring of 2007. The other two books that were filmed together were Mansfield Manor and Persuasion. Because of the limited budget, there are basically no big names for all the cast members, but the production level is still guaranteed. Later, it was Carey Mulligan who played the discordant Isabella. Two years later, she played a girl seduced by a mature man again in "Growing Up Education" and was nominated for an Oscar.
