Defining the Novel in Northanger Abbey, Ms. Austen said:
A work in which the greatest powers of the mind are displayed, in which the most thorough knowledge of human nature, the happiest deliniation of its varieties, the liveliest effusions of wit and humor are conveyed to the world in the best chosen language.
Sounds like a novel might be the perfect Christmas gift!
