Little Women
This story of the four March sisters--Meg, Jo, Beth, and Amy--is based on the author`s own childhood. The novel is divided into two parts. During Book One, the women of the family must carry on while Mr. March is off fighting in the Civil War. In Book Two, which takes place after the war has ended, the sisters deal with love, marriage, an unexpected tragedy, and Jo`s determination to become a professional writer.

Northanger Abbey
NORTHANGER ABBEY is about a naove young woman whose head is full of the Gothic novels she consumes, and who begins to imagine that life may well be even stranger than fiction. Catherine Morland makes a touching, if somewhat charmingly brainless, heroine; Henry Tilney is a self-possessed and witty hero; and the plot device in which Catherine sees General Tilney as a black-hearted villain out of a Gothic romance is ingenious and engrossing. In fact, this early work is full of sustained and sparkling inventiveness, and exhibits the sharp and accurate social observations of Austen`s more mature fiction.
