In response to I think it's pretty simple, written by Laraine on May 13, 1998 at 16:17:23
] I think the reason that Mary and Henry are drawn to Edmund and Fanny is really rather simple: Edmund and Fanny are good, intelligent, and interesting people...Until coming to Mansfield, they had hung about with too many people like Maria -- good looking and rich, perhaps, but also spoiled, self-indulgent, and petty. Our hero and heroine are none of the latter list.
Laraine,
I really liked reading your comments. Your answer is succinct and
insightful (and I think right on target). As you said, "I think it's pretty simple" why Mary and Henry are drawn to them.
I thought about answering Bonny's question, but since I am probably
"notorious" around here for "sticking up" for Fanny and Edmund, I was a
little hesitant to reply to her post.
I glad you took the time to post such a thoughtful answer.
