In Mansfield Park, Fanny Price, who comes from a difficult background, is raised by her wealthy aunt and her four children. There, she is more tolerated than loved. Only her cousin Edward treats her with affection. However, the tranquil country life is thrown into disarray when the London bon vivants Mary and Henry Crawford arrive, turning everything upside down with their schemes and cunning seduction tactics. Marriage promises are broken, and hearts are shattered in droves. Only the quiet Fanny sees through the game. Jane Austen, the master of well-tempered dialogue, nonchalant wit, and sharp character portrayal, proves herself in her third novel as a mature storyteller at the height of her craft. Following 'Sense and Sensibility' and 'Pride and Prejudice,' Manfred Allié and Gabriele Kempf-Allié also give 'Mansfield Park' a fresh and modern tone.
