Description

This completely new selection of Katherine Mansfield's correspondence draws from the five volumes of her Collected Letters currently being published by Clarendon Press, and ranges from the period of her adolescence to shortly before her death twenty years later. The letters, many of which are to John Middleton Murry, Lady Ottoline Morrell, S.S. Koteliansky, the painters Anne Estelle Drey, and Dorothy Brett, as well as her own family, literary friends, and chance aquaintances chart her wide range of writing styles and reveal the vitality, warmth, and wit that places Mansfield among the most poignant and entertaining of modern letterwriters.
