XCLASSICS MANSFIELD PARK E EB
HarperCollins is proud to present its range of best-loved, essential classics.
Everybody likes to go their own way – to choose their own time and manner of devotion.
At the age of ten, Fanny Price is sent away to live with her aunt and uncle at their grand house, Mansfield Park. Growing up alongside her 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 Crawfords come to visit, the house and its occupants are suddenly thrown into disarray. Romance begins to flourish, forcing Fanny to finally confront the extent of her true feelings for Edmund.
Considered Austen's most complex novel, the timid and moral character of Fanny Price has inspired more debate among modern readers than any of Austen's other female protagonists.

CLASSICS NORTHANGER ABBEY EB
HarperCollins is proud to present its range of best-loved, essential classics.
Northanger Abbey! These were thrilling words, and wound up Catherine's feelings to the highest point of ecstasy.
While holidaying in Bath, young Catherine Moreland meets Henry Tilney and his sister Eleanor who invite her to their family estate, Northanger Abbey. An avid reader of Gothic romance novels, naive Catherine soon lets her imagination run wild, fuelled by her friendship with the vivacious Isabella Thorpe. It is only when the realities of life set in around her that Catherine's fantastical world is shattered.
Considered her most entertaining and satirical work, Austen expertly parodies the Gothic romance stories of her time and reveals much about her unsentimental view of love and marriage in the eighteenth century.
