“How could she (Fanny) have excited serious attachment in a man who had seen so...”
– Mansfield Park, Chapter 31 Why I love/hate Fanny Price. lol (via twinsand) I don’t understand how this passage and element of MP can make people hate Fanny. I think Henry desires her MOSTLY because she doesn’t want him. He’s basically a date rapist. And all Fanny did was dare...
