Description

Although Katherine Mansfield was closely associated with D.H.

Lawrence and something of a rival of Virginia Woolf, her stories suggest someone writing in a different era and in a vastly different English.

Her language is as transparent as clean glass, yet hovers on the edge of poetry.

Her characters are passionate men and women swaddled in English reserve -- and sometimes briefly breaking through. And her genius is to pinpoint those unacknowledged and almost imperceptible moments in which those people's relationships -- with one another and themselves -- change forever.

This collection includes such masterpieces as "Prelude," "At the Bay" "Bliss," "The Man Without a Temperament" and "The Garden Party" and has a new introduction by Jeffrey Meyers.
