The Collected Letters of Katherine Mansfield Volume Four 1920-1921 [Hardcover]

The letters in this volume cover the eighteen months Katherine Mansfield spent in England, France, and Switzerland from May 1920 to the end of 1921. It is the period of her finest stories, and when her life took its most decisive turn. The qualities of her earlier correspondence remain undiminished--the precision and directness, the intelligence and wit, the dark incisiveness and sheer fun. Above all, these letters attest to her considerable courage, against increasingly adverse odds, as she approached the final years of her life.

...this collection of [Mansfield's] letters provides, finally, an accurate and reliable fourdation for Mansfield scholarship. --English Literature in Transition
