内容简介

《诺桑觉寺》是英国作家简·奥斯汀创作的长篇小说，它是奥斯汀打算出版的第一部小说，定稿完成于1797年左右，即奥斯汀大概22岁的时候。在这部小说中，作者初露锋芒，文风初步成形。

该作讲述家境小康的牧师女儿凯瑟琳天真可爱，在跟随邻居艾伦夫妇去巴思旅游时，结识了两对兄妹：家境富有的蒂尔尼兄妹正直而善解人意；家境平平的索普兄妹利欲熏心；凯瑟琳与蒂尔尼相爱，但索普为了把凯瑟琳追到手，同时把妹妹嫁给凯瑟琳的哥哥，耍了许多诡计，使蒂尔尼趋炎附势的父亲极力阻挠儿子的婚姻，并且毫不留情地将上门作客的凯瑟琳赶出家门。蒂尔尼向来尊重父亲，但在维护自己幸福的问题上没有退让，经过重重曲折后，终于和凯瑟琳喜结良缘。 [1] 

《诺桑觉寺》与其他五部奥斯汀的长篇不同，采用了公开的叙述者和外露的作者型的叙述声音，展现了作者权威。
