Things That Remind Me of:

Northanger Abbey, Jane Austen.

One Period Drama per post: Northanger Abbey

“To begin perfect happiness at the respective ages of 26 and 18 is to do pretty well. Catherine and Henry were married, and in due course the joys of wedding gave way to the blessing of a christening. The bells rang and everyone smiled. No one more than so than Eleanor, who’s beloved’s sudden ascension to title and fortune finally allowed them to marry. I leave it to be settled whether the tendency of this story be to recommend parental tyranny or to reward filial disobedience.”

“No one who had ever seen Catherine Morland in her infancy would have supposed her born to be a heroine.”
