Mansfield Park - Softcover

When shy Fanny Price arrives at Mansfield Park to live with her cousins, she is overwhelmed and only put at ease by her cousin, Edmund Bertram, whom she soon comes to love. But Edmund's head is turned by the beautiful Mary Crawford and she and her brother Henry spark a series of romantic entanglements that lead the Bertram family to the brink of social disaster. It becomes apparent to Fanny that pretty manners and fine words are no substitute for integrity.

Jane Austen (1775-1817) grew up in Hampshire. Loved by her family as a dear sister and favourite aunt, she never married, but threw herself into her writing which produced not only Pride and Prejudice, but five other complete novels which are renowned for their insightful grasp of human characteristics and good humour.
