Publisher's Summary
After her impoverished family sends her to live with her wealthy aunt and uncle at opulent Mansfield Park, Fanny Price finds her life forever changed by the aristocratic Bertrams and the city-dwelling Crawford siblings. But is it for the better? While the others seem content to abandon what’s right to further their own interests, Fanny decides to hold true to her heart - a choice that will make or break her future.
Mansfield Park is largely considered to be one of Jane Austen’s most ambitious novels, a darkly satirical glimpse into morality and social mobility within the nineteenth-century British class system.

Sometimes you just have to stay the course.
Although written many years hence, this story translates to modern times, without much adjustments. Language and topics discussed, tech gadgets to newspapers, but overall, the basic story would be the same.
A young cousin brought into a wealthy family, perhaps accepted, but who has already experienced hardship, is more likely to be able to see what others do not.
The foibles of human nature, which although tries to run a certain course, often returns to bad behavior and excesses, if they are placed in situations where they are tempted.
The narrator does a fantastic job, enhancing a story, with the various characters vocalizations.
