Award-winning narrator and internationally acclaimed writer/comedienne, Alison Larkin brings her personal wit to the hugely entertaining music production of Jane Austen's first book, Northanger Abbey, followed by The Record of Great britain, a short, delightfully satirical part that Austen had written when she was just 15 yrs . old. In Northanger Abbey, Catherine Morland, a clergyman's daughter, longs for the type of romantic adventures she has read about in her favorite Gothic novels. After spending a season mingling with fashionable high world in Bath, she actually is invited to stay at Northanger Abbey where there is nothing what it appears. In The Record of Great britain, the teenage Jane Austen pokes fun at the historians of the day who pretended to be objective when they evidently were not, and had written about the kings and queens of Great britain with less respect (plus more wit) than a British newspaper.
