Summary

She was the poor relation—but not the weakest one.

In Mansfield Park, Jane Austen delivers one of her most profound and morally charged novels. The story follows Fanny Price, a shy and principled young woman raised by wealthy relatives, as she navigates love, ambition, and family pressure within the gilded confines of Mansfield Park.

Surrounded by vanity, flirtation, and social scheming, Fanny must rely on her conscience and inner resolve to survive—and ultimately thrive—in a world that underestimates her. Austen's exploration of virtue, status, and personal growth makes this a deeply reflective and emotionally satisfying classic.

This edition features period illustrations, detailed annotations, and context to enrich your reading experience.

"Austen's most quietly radical work—and her most misunderstood." — The Guardian
"A powerful meditation on character and conviction." — The New York Review of Books

    Herbert George Wells (21 September 1866 - 13 August 1946) was an English writer. Prolific in many genres, he wrote dozens of novels, short stories, and works of social commentary, history, satire, biography and autobiography. His work also included two books on recreational war games. Wells is now best remembered for his science fiction novels and is often called the "father of science fiction", along with Jules Verne and the publisher Hugo Gernsback.
MATCHING'S EASY AT EASE: It was the sixth day of Mr. Direck's first visit to England, and he was at his acutest perception of differences. He found England in every way gratifying and satisfactory, and more of a contrast with things American than he had ever dared to hope.
