How I wish I was closing the book at the moment, only to find myself lost in my high school physics class

It's better to watch Jane Austen's story when watching a small British country film, yep, I finished watching "Northanger Abbey" today. BTW, how unromantic it is to translate Abbey to "Temple", uh...

it's Austen's early published novel, written when she was very young. So it seems that this work is so innocent and lovely, and it also lacks a lot of arrogance and stubbornness compared with the later works. Austen has written so many exquisite love stories, but he can't get love in his life, how sad it is. I found that in Austen's works, although the heroines live in different stories, they actually have the same character in their bones. Catherine from Northanger Abbey, Elizabeth from Pride and Prejudice, and Eleanor and Marianne from Sense and Sensibility, so sincere and so proud, and a little bit insane and not humble, I think All the heroines added up should be Austin himself.

I think if I lived in the 18th and 19th centuries, I would be an idiot who would sleep and sleep with such little books every day, haha... Suddenly I want to buy Austen's novels and revisit them. Every time I watch Austen's movies, I think of my high school years. I never listen to the mathematics, physics, chemistry, and biology classes. I put these novels on my lap and look down at the past, often suddenly lifted up. Looking at the sunlight outside will make my eyes dazzled and come back to my senses. I still can't forget the part where I saw Elizabeth and Mr. Darcy arguing in the physics class that year, and even the soul didn't know where to go. In retrospect, it's really amazing. It's really unreasonable for a rebellious high school student like me to work hard and get into college after a third year of high school...

Well, if you have money, you can buy back this batch of famous novels that you read in high school.

Northanger Abbey quotes

  • Isabella Thorpe: My dear one, in this false world, people often make promises they have little intention of keeping. Remember, we are your *true* friends.

  • The Voice of Jane Austen: No-one who had ever seen Catherine Morland in her infancy would have supposed her born to be a great heroine. Her situation in life, the character of her father and moth, and her own disposition, were equally against her. The Morlands were, in general, very plain, and Catherine, for many years of her life, as plain as any. Neither was it very wonderful that Catherine, who had, by nature, nothing heroic about her, should prefer cricket and baseball to dolls and books. But by the age of 15, appearances were mending. Catherine Morland was in training for a heroine.
