«The Garden Party and Other Stories» is Katherine Mansfield's collection of short stories (Penguin Classics, paperback, 256 pages, in English).
The stories explore human behavior in ordinary situations, with attention to childhood and restrained emotions. Katherine Mansfield does not rely on grand plots but on gestures, silences and everyday details; her sensitivity and powers of observation led her to be compared with Chekhov.
This volume, Katherine Mansfield's third collection of short stories, was the last published in her lifetime, in 1922, and contains fifteen stories.
Aimed at readers of classic fiction and early twentieth-century modern short stories.
Kathleen Mansfield Murry was a New Zealand writer and critic who was an important figure in the modernist movement. Her works are celebrated across the world and have been published in 25 languages.
