Story
Innovative, startlingly perceptive and aglow with colour, these 15 stories were written towards the end of Katherine Mansfield's tragically short life. Many are set in the author's native New Zealand, others in England and the French Riviera. All are revelations of the unspoken, half-understood emotions that make up everyday experience - from the blackly comic 'The Daughters of the Late Colonel' and the short, sharp sketch 'Miss Brill', in which a lonely woman's precarious sense of self is brutally destroyed, to the vivid impressionistic evocation of family life in 'At the Bay'.

Story
In the realm of the short story, Katherine Mansfield established a highly original style. Undramatic, poetic and lyrical, her writing is exquisitely subtle in its treatment of human behaviour. When these 14 short stories were published in 1920, she had already effected a transformation in this form of fiction, and her influence has been deeply felt by subsequent writers.

Story
Katherine Mansfield accomplishes an incredible drama with detailed characterization in "Miss Brill", a story only four pages long, written in the early 1920's. The main character is a lonely spinster, probably an elderly Englishwoman, living in a resort area of France near the seashore, earning enough to support herself by tutoring English children and reading the newspapers to an old invalid whose ability to hear and comprehend are questionable. She sits on a bench at the park and creates fantasy scenarios involving the people around her, enhanced by her eavesdropping skills.

Story
Three delightfully intriguing short stories from the pen of Katherine Mansfield (born Wellington, New Zealand, 1888 - died Fontainebleau, France, 1923). In "Bliss" the listener is introduced to 30-year-old Mrs Bertha Young. She has everything…. The nameless He and She in "Psychology": He is 31; she is 30. She has invited him to tea. Their discourse turns to the future of the psychological novel.... Exactly when the ball began 18-year old Leila would have found it hard to say. This, "Her First Ball", is an enthralling experience but, at the same time, quite terrifying.

Story
Marriage a La Mode is a 1921 short story by Katherine Mansfield. It was first published in The Sphere on 31 December 1921, and later reprinted in The Garden Party and Other Stories. - The title is a play on the phrase mariage à la mode in French, which means 'fashionable marriage'. William would usually buy his children sweets because he knows his wife won't let him buy them 'big donkeys and engines', as that would be unseemly. This time he buys fruit instead.

Story
"En somme, un temps idéal. Quand ils l'auraient fait faire sur commande, ils n'auraient pas pu avoir une journée plus parfaite pour leur garden-party. Pas de vent, l'air doux, le ciel sans nuage. Le bleu seulement était voilé d'une brume d'or léger, comme il l'est quelquefois au début de l'été." La famille Sheridan prépare une garden-party. L'hautaine Laura est chargée de diriger les travailleurs, tandis que sa sœur, Jose, teste le piano. C'est alors que la famille apprend le décès de leur voisin, Mr Scott. Faut-il annuler la réception ?

"Au matin, très tôt. Le soleil n'était pas encore levé et la baie toute entière était cachée par un brouillard blanc venu de la mer. Les grandes collines recouvertes de brousse, au fond, étaient submergées." "Sur la baie" est une nouvelle de Katherine Mansfield publiée pour la permière fois en 1922 dans le London Mercury. C'est l'une des œuvres les plus accomplies de l'auteure et un excellent exemple d'impressionnisme littéraire. On y retrouve Kezia et Lottie, deux caractères qui figurent aussi dans "Prélude".

Story
Parmi les plus belles lettres de la littérature mondiale, écrites par celle que Virginie Woolf nommait "le seul auteur que j'envie". Au fil des années, de 1913 à 1921, et de ses correspondants, Katherine Mansfield nous fait suivre son douloureux combat contre la tuberculose, en même temps que sa lutte contre la page blanche. Sa vie et son œuvre étaient étroitement liées. Elle écrivait avec sa vie, son sang, ses souffrances - et aussi avec cette gaieté qui s'emparait d'elle devant un ciel clair, un arbre en fleur, un enfant qui rit.
