1. 1. Katherine Mansfield

   

   A concise biography that follows her journey from childhood in New Zealand to her expatriate life in Europe, exploring the personal relationships, artistic struggles and tuberculosis that shaped her brief but influential career; it situates her modernist innovations in the short story—impressionistic detail, psychological insight and subtle social critique—within the context of her friendships, love affairs and public reception, and offers an assessment of her literary legacy and continuing influence on 20th-century fiction.
