Welcome to the first episode of Shaped by Stories, a podcast that chats with interesting and creative people about a special book from their childhood or early adolescence.

Jane Austen's Mansfield Park is rarely listed as a favorite of the Austen oeuvre, but Austen scholar Dr. Susanne Cammack has fond memories of reading Mansfield Park as a young teen. We talk about reading in trees, her Austen-fueled teen rebellion, and why an introverted high school student might identify with Fanny Price. Plus, a tiny dash of literary criticism chat.
