Die Schwestern Elinor und Marianne Dashwood könnten unterschiedlicher nicht sein: Erstere verkörpert Verstand, Selbstbeherrschung und Reserviertheit, letztere Gefühl, Leidenschaftlichkeit und Impulsivität.

An outsider caught between expectations, privileges, and silent power games
From the moment young Fanny Price is taken in by her wealthy relatives at Mansfield Park, her presence stirs both admiration and disdain. Lacking the polished education of her cousins, she endures their constant ridicule – yet her honesty, quiet courage, and unshakable integrity set her apart. And Edmund Bertram, her kind and principled cousin, cannot help but notice. But as love, temptation, and betrayal sweep through the grand halls of Mansfield Park, Fanny must find the strength to stay true to herself. Will her heart lead her to happiness – or heartbreak?
A timeless tale of love, loyalty, and desire from the unrivaled »Queen of Romance«.
