Nightmare Abbey was the third of Thomas Love Peacock's books to be published. It was written in late March and June 1818, and published in London in November of the same year by T. Hookham Jr of Old Bond Street and Baldwin, Craddock & Joy of Paternoster Row. The novel was lightly revised by the author in 1837 for republication in Volume 57 of Bentley's Standard Novels.
Nightmare Abbey is a Gothic topical satire in which the writer pokes light-hearted fun at the romantic movement in contemporary English literature, in particular its obsession with morbid subjects, misanthropy and transcendental philosophical systems. Most of the characters in the novel are based on historical figures whom Peacock wishes to pillory.
This edition has been formatted for your reader, with an active table of contents.  This work has also been annotated, with additional information about the book and its author, including an overview, plot summary, characters, major themes, famous passages, allusions, literary significance, biographical and bibliographical information.
