About the Author

Reviews
Author and scholar Aiken (1924–2004), known for her Jane Austen continuations, has imagined a sequel to Mansfield Park that'll satisfy some Austen fans while enraging others. Heroine Fanny Brice has married her cousin Edmund Bertram and decamped for the family's Caribbean plantation, leaving her younger sister, Susan, behind to serve as Lady Bertram's companion at Mansfield Park. Less timid than her sister, but dismissed just the same by her finer relatives, Susan soon encounters the Crawfords, Henry and Mary, a diverting but amoral brother-and-sister pair who had nearly undone the proud Bertram family. Aiken's sympathetic vision of the Crawfords' fate, after their seduction of Fanny and her cousins, may strike a false note for Austen purists, but Aiken ably reproduces the author's traditional plot twists and social comedy, if not her fluid prose or biting satire. (Oct.)

Mansfield Park Revisited: A Jane Austen Entertainment
Seller: World of Books Inc, Montgomery, IL, U.S.A.
Seller rating 2 out of 5 stars
Paperback. Condition: Good. In Aiken's sequel to Jane Austen's complex and fascinating novel, after heroine Fanny Price marries Edmund Bertram, they depart for the Caribbean, and Fanny's younger sister Susan moves to Mansfield Park as Lady Bertram's new companion. Surrounded by the familiar cast of characters from Jane Austen's original, and joined by a few charming new characters introduced by the author, Susan finds herself entangled in romance, surprise, scandal, and redemption. Aiken's diverting tale gives the reader interesting speculation on how the Crawfords, whose winning personalities were marred by an amoral upbringing, might have turned out, and Jane Austen's morality tale takes new directions with an unexpected and somewhat controversial ending. "A lovely read-and you don't have to have read Mansfield Park to enjoy it."-Woman's Own "Her sense of time and place is impeccable."-Publishers Weekly "An excellent sequel.remarkably effective and very funny." -Evening Standard.
