Katherine Mansfield - The Garden Party
Penguin, -
254 str.

stanje: vrlo dobro, beleška na prvoj strani.

Written during the final stages of her illness, `The Garden Party and Other Stories` is full of a sense of urgency and was Katherine Mansfield`s last collection to be published during her lifetime. The fifteen stories, many of them set in her native New Zealand, vary in length and tone from the opening story, `At the Bay, ` a vivid impressionistic evocation of family life, to the short, sharp sketch `Mrs. Brill, ` in which a lonely woman`s precarious sense of self is brutally destroyed when she overhears two young lovers mocking her. Sensitive revelations of human behaviour, these stories reveal Mansfield`s supreme talent as an innovator who freed the story from its conventions and gave it a new strength and prestige.
