Mansfield Park

From its sharply satiric opening sentence, Mansfield Park deals with money and marriage, and how strongly they affect each other. Shy, fragile Fanny Price is the consummate "poor relation." Sent to live with her wealthy uncle Thomas, she clashes with his spoiled, selfish daughters and falls in love with his son. Their lives are further complicated by the arrival of a pair of witty, sophisticated Londoners, whose flair for flirtation collides with the quiet, conservative country ways of Mansfield Park.

Written several years after the early manuscripts that eventually became Sense and Sensibility and Pride and Prejudice, Mansfield Park retains Jane Austen's familiar compassion and humor but offers a far more complex exploration of moral choices and their emotional consequences.

Fantastisk engelska att lyssna till

Reader Karen Savage (I think her name was) has quite as happy a nack for reading well, impersonating the different characters etc as Henry Crawford is said to have (somewhere halfway through this excellent book). Her name under ”reader” in an audiobook description, is a quality stamp to me, after having heard her through this and at least one other Austen book. About the book itself: I love Austen books in general and this one is my absolute favourite. She manages to mix humour into a rather serious and painfull story that makes one think.
