What this book is about
Fanny Price, a poor relation taken in by the wealthy Bertrams of Mansfield Park, grows up as an outsider in her own home — overlooked and underestimated. As the Bertram children and their glamorous friends stage amateur theatricals and pursue unsuitable romances, only Fanny and her cousin Edmund seem aware of the moral stakes. Austen's most serious and morally exacting novel.
