Mansfield Park

Sent away from her family due to financial hardship, Fanny Price grows up at Mansfield Park under the roof of her wealthy aunt and uncle, always conscious of the gap between her station and theirs. Her cousin Edmund remains her one true ally, a bond she holds above all else. When the Crawford siblings arrive from London, the integrity of the household is tested, and it is Fanny, for all her humble beginnings, who finds herself trying to keep her more privileged relatives out of danger. Considered one of Jane Austen's most mature novels, it looks unflinchingly at adultery and scandal through a cast of flawed, fascinating characters.
