A PENGUIN CLASSICS HARDCOVER MANSFIELD PARK E...

Taken from the poverty of her parents' home in Portsmouth  Fanny Price is brought up with her
rich cousins at Mansfield Park  acutely aware of her humble rank and with her cousin Edmund as
her sole ally. During her uncle's absence in Antigua  the Crawford's arrive in the
neighbourhood bringing with them the glamour of London life and a reckless taste for
flirtation. Mansfield Park is considered Jane Austen's first mature work and  with its quiet
heroine and subtle examination of social position and moral integrity  one of her most
profound.  For more than seventy years  Penguin has been the leading publisher of classic
literature in the English-speaking world. With more than 1 700 titles  Penguin Classics
represents a global bookshelf of the best works throughout history and across genres and
disciplines. Readers trust the series to provide authoritative texts enhanced by introductions
and notes by distinguished scholars and contemporary authors  as well as up-to-date
