At the age of 10, Fanny Price, the daughter of a poor Portsmouth family, is sent to live with her wealthy uncle's family, the Bertrams, at the country estate of Mansfield Park. The Bertrams treat her cruelly at first, and Fanny has trouble fitting in. Her female cousins, Maria and Julia, are fashionable and vapid, and her elder male cousin, Tom, is a drunk. The only family member she feels a connection to is the younger Edmund, who is preparing for life in the clergy. When her uncle leaves to manage business in Antigua, Henry and Mary Crawford, siblings from the region, come to live at Mansfield Park as well. Their arrival begins a series of romantic engagements that strains the entire family's relationships. Mansfield Park is unusual in that despite it being a great public success, with the first edition selling out in six months and a second edition selling out two years later, it wasn't publicly reviewed until 1821, seven years after it was first published. Contemporary reviews were generally good, praising the novel's morality. Modern reviews are more mixed, making it one of Austen's more controversial works. Modern critics have called it everything from eccentric and difficult to thoughtful and profound, with any number of interpretations possible depending on the lens one views the work through. Jane Austen (died 1817) was a celebrated writer of the Romantic era. Their work has endured across generations and continues to be read and studied worldwide. As a work of classic literary fiction, Mansfield Park exemplifies the narrative craft and social insight that defined great storytelling of its era. Literary fiction of this period was characterized by careful attention to character psychology, social milieu, and the moral questions that animated public discourse.
