Description
Katherine Mansfield (1888-1923) is credited alongside James Joyce as the creator of the modern short story.
The New Zealand-born Englishwoman embraced a Bohemian lifestyle and became involved in a series of scandalous relationships, which greatly influenced some of her most significant work.
Her best-known writings were produced in her final years, as she was plagued by illness.
Her fiction is dominated by themes of male-female relationships, sexual ambivalence and gender roles.
Most of her work focuses on female protagonists and demonstrates the problems of social relationships.
This collection, written between 1920-1922, includes "At the Bay," a story that proposes there is more to a woman's life than marriage and motherhood; "The Garden Party," which explores class differences; "The Daughters of the Late Colonel," a story about life and death; "Marriage a la Mode," about the dissolution of a relationship; "Miss Brill," Mansfield's memorable tale of the lonely woman, and several more.
