Mansfield Park

In classic Austen fashion, Mansfield Park is a fabulous display of feminism and femininity. With Fanny Price, the reader is given a complex and relatable character, the female heroine with human tendencies, thoughts, and emotions that the reader can sympathize with as she is given poor treatment by her wealthy aunt and cousins, as the poor country girl they feel superior to. Mansfield Park presents issues of gender, marriage, love, the home, passivity, and personal principles and takes the reader on an adventure of character development and growth from beginning to end. It is a must-read for anyone who would call themselves an Austen fan.
