I pay very little regard...to what any young person says on the subject of marriage. If they profess a disinclination for it, I only set it down that they have not yet seen the right person. Humble & reserved, a young Fanny Price goes to live with her wealthy aunt & uncle at their grand house, Mansfield Park. Growing up with her privileged & indulged cousins, the Bertrams, she lives in the shadows of their glamorous lives, but finds an ally in her kind cousin, Edmund. When the questionable Henry & Mary Crawford come to visit, the house is thrown into disarray as romance flourishes between the young people, forcing Fanny to finally confront the extent of her true feelings for Edmund. Considered Austen's most socially aware & complex novel, the timid & moral character of Fanny has inspired more debate among modern readers than any of Austen's other female protagonists. ...

Adultery is not a typical Jane Austen theme, but when it disturbs the relatively peaceful household at Mansfield Park, it has quite unexpected results.

The diffident & much put-upon heroine Fanny Price has to struggle to cope with the results, re-examining her own feelings while enduring the cheerful amorality, old-fashioned indifference & priggish disapproval of those around her.
