Sinossi

"If Fanny Price had been a girl of any spirit, she would have long ago left Mansfield Park."

So begins one of Jane Austen's most profound and often debated novels. Mansfield Park introduces us to Fanny Price, a poor, timid cousin sent to live with her wealthy relatives, the Bertrams, at the grand estate of Mansfield Park. Surrounded by elegance, self-interest, and moral laxity, Fanny remains the novel's steadfast moral compass.

This novel is not simply a Regency romance; it is a meticulous study of English society, class, education, and moral integrity. As the glamorous and charismatic siblings, Henry and Mary Crawford, arrive, they disrupt the quiet life and tempt the Bertram family—and Fanny herself—into compromising positions. Fanny's quiet strength and unwavering commitment to virtue are tested, culminating in her struggle to reconcile her heart with her conscience.

For those who love classic literature and deep social commentary, Mansfield Park offers a richly detailed, intellectually engaging journey into the values and vulnerabilities of early 19th-century England.

Manon Lescaut

abbé Prévost

‘The sweetness of her glance – or rather, my evil star already in its
ascendant and drawing me to my ruin – did not allow me to hesitate
for a moment...’ So begins the story of Manon Lescaut, a tale of
passion and betrayal, of delinquency and misalliance, which moves
from early 18th-century Paris – with its theatres, assemblies, and
gaming-houses – via prison and deportation to a tragic denouement
in the treeless wastes of Louisiana. It is one of the great love stories,
and also one of the most enigmatic: how reliable a witness is Des
Grieux, Manon’s lover, whose tale he narrates? Is Manon a thief and
a whore, the image of love itself, or a thoroughly modern woman?
Prévost is careful to leave the ambiguities unresolved, and to lay bare
the disorders of passion.
