Paperback. Zustand: Near Fine. First Edition, 27th Printing. Text/NEW w/trace margin discoloration. Soft cover/NF w/light wear & sticker removal loss to lower back corner. Collection of 15 short stories of early 20th century New Zealand from Katherine Mansfield, pseudonym of Kathleen Mansfield Beauchamp (1888-1923). First published 1922 in literary magazines; this is Penguin reissue. The physical setting for the stories is loosely based upon Mansfield's childhood home in Wellington and carries autobiographical undertones. "The Garden Party", the title story, centers on an annual, ritual and elaborate garden party held by the well-to-do Sheridan family. On the same day, news arrives of the accidental horse-and-cart death of a working-class man of the poorer part of the village. Told through young Laura Sheridan's reaction to the day. She had so looked forward to the party, but when her family at large simply brushed off the tradgey by deciding the unfortunate man was drunk, leads her questioning class prejudices and absurdity of class distinctions.

First edition thus, number 220 of 1,200 copies produced by the elite printer Hans Mardersteig of the Officina Bodoni and illustrated with queer colour lithographs by the Parisian Cubist artist Marie Laurencin. This anthology volume selects Katherine Mansfield's "best" stories from across her career, and as such the contents slightly differ from her celebrated collection published under the same title in 1922. Katherine Mansfield (1888-1923) ranks among the most important short-story writers of the 20th century. Forever leaving behind her native New Zealand in 1908, she embarked on her literary career while pursuing a peripatetic, bohemian life in the orbit of the Bloomsbury Group in London. Mansfield's experiences of familial estrangement and persistent ill-health heavily influenced her work, which grew to four published story collections before her premature death from tuberculosis. Her husband, John Middleton Murry, edited a fifth collection posthumously. Virginia Woolf remembered Mansfield for having "the only writing I have ever been jealous of. Probably we had something in common which I shall never find in anyone else" (p. 227). Through her stories, journals, and letters, Mansfield still enjoys cult status "for her divination of the hatred and cruelties beneath the sweet surfaces of family life; and for her sympathy with the vulnerable, the displaced, and the lonely" (ODNB). Though printed in 1939, the outbreak of the Second World War delayed publication until 1947. Kirkpatrick D6.
