"Adultery is not a typical theme of Jane Austen's, but when is disturbs the well-ordered peace and tranquility of Mansfield Park, it has quite unexpected effects, as it causes the diffident and much put-upon heroine Fanny Price to struggle to cope with the results, re-examining her own feelings while enduring the cheerful amorality, old-fashioned indifference and priggish disapproval of those around her."
