Description
A fashionable spa town two hundred years ago: English fathers came here to treat their gout-affected joints in the hot springs, and together with their wives, they introduced their daughters to society in hopes of attracting the interest of eligible suitors. The heroines of the story, the sincere, naive young Catherine and her cunning friend Isabella, spice up their mission by reading spooky Gothic novels, and they see their props at every turn. This situation offers Jane Austen a great opportunity to showcase her typical sense of humor and ironic wit.
