About this listen

At the tender age of 10, Fanny Price is 'adopted' by her rich relations and is removed from the poverty of her home in Portsmouth to the opulence of Mansfield Park. The transplantation is not a happy one. Dependent, helpless, neglected and forgotten, Fanny struggles to come to terms with her new life until, tested almost to the limits of endurance, she assumes her rightful role....

Give yourself a treat and listen to this. I so enjoyed it and am going to listen to the rest of the Jane Austens read by her with equal enjoyment I am sure!

Juliet Stevenson is a fabulous narrator, especially for Austen. Her performance is warm and engaging, and she does equal justice to both male and female characters.
Austen's novels are the perfect antidote to stress or a bad day, and Mansfield Park is no exception.

Wonderfully Narrated

Despite Juliet Stevenson's fine reading, I did not greatly enjoy Mansfield Park. Fanny Price as a central character is, frankly, a bit wet and unconvincing. She is a goody-goody, and suffers from that, since, in general, the more dubious characters are nearly always more interesting. Yet I found few of them interesting in this novel. The story hardly grabbed me either. One does not expect a rollicking tale with Jane Austen, but her better-known novels like Pride and Prejudice and Persuasion are hard to put down, once you start reading. With Mansfield Park, I was glad to put it down quite often.

Interesting, though not Jane's best

Whilst Mansfield Park is not one of my favourite Austen novels, Juliet Stevenson creates a beautiful ambient setting. Her characterisation is distinctive, but not dramatised. A fantastic listen.

A wonderful performance to a lovely story
