Overview
Raised by her wealthy relatives, Fanny Prince's modesty and integrity stand in stark contrast to the glamorous yet ambiguous lives around her in this most controversial of Jane Austen's novels. Mansfield Park follows Fanny's life with the Bertrams, and as she matures she faces difficult choices and unexpected challenges that test her principles. Representing arguably the most controversial of Austen's novels, Mansfield Park raises many questions, including whether the heroine is appalling or appealing, whether Austen a traditionalist or a feminist, or if the novel is simplistic or ironic. Jane Austen's thought-provoking novel explores themes of social class, virtue, and self-discovery, making it a compelling read for fans of classic literature.
