Mansfield Park by Jane Austen is the book you're looking for This is the Austen's original version with the addition of an annotated literary critique at the end to better explain the meaning of this book. About of the BookMansfield Park is the third published novel by Jane Austen, first published in 1814 by Thomas Egerton. A second edition was published in 1816 by John Murray, still within Austen's lifetime. The novel did not receive any public reviews until 1821. The novel tells the story of Fanny Price, starting when her overburdened family sends her at age ten to live in the household of her wealthy aunt and uncle and following her development into early adulthood. From early on critical interpretation has been diverse, differing particularly over the character of the heroine, Austen's views about theatrical performance and the centrality or otherwise of ordination and religion, and on the question of slavery. Some of these problems have been highlighted in the several later adaptations of the story for stage and screen. Book Considerations.- "I was astounded to find that many of the reviews on this site criticize this book for the main character, Fanny Price, & her timidity and morality. It is very different from Pride and Prejudice and Sense and Sensibility, whose smart, sensible heroines make the novels, but I actually enjoyed this book immensely for its social commentary." - Minerve- "Fanny is one of my favorite Jane Austen protagonists. She's often criticized for not being outspoken and fiesty like the other Austen leads, but Fanny has a quiet strength that I love. In the face of her manipulative and abusive family, she stays calm and strong and refuses to budge on what's in her heart. She fights for her own heart despite tremendous pressure and I love her so much for that." - Merphy- "This edition of Mansfield Park comes with a great introduction and notes, containing interesting information about the publication of this novel and historical context. I have been a huge Jane Austen fan ever since I first saw P&P and shortly thereafter read the novel, leading to me falling in love with the dignified wit and sass this author has had. It can't have been easy in her time, which makes me appreciate her dry humour and social criticism even more." - TrishOne of the most-loved books in English Literature made by Jane AustenIt's time to embark on an enlightening journey inside the incredible story of " Mansfield Park " by Jane Austen.

Jane Austen (1775-1817) was an English novelist whose works of romantic fiction, set among the landed gentry, earned her a place as one of the most widely read writers in English literature. Her realism and biting social commentary have gained her historical importance among scholars and critics; while her vivid characters and clever plots have garnered her legions of fans. "Persuasion" (1817) is Austen's last completed novel, not published until after her death. It is the story of Anne Elliot, the neglected middle of the three daughters born to a proud but profligate baronet. Anne is a spinster who gave up the love of her life seven years earlier because his prospects seemed doubtful. Suddenly, he re-enters her life and she may have a chance at happiness at last.
