Sinossi

'And it seemed to her that kisses, voices, tinkling spoons, laughter, the smell of crushed grass were somehow inside her.'

A master of the short story form, Katherine Mansfield offers fifteen remarkable tales in this pioneering and starkly perceptive collection: The Garden Party and Other Stories.

Exploring themes such as class, identity and the human experience, The Garden Party and Other Stories captures several moments of emotional revelation and self-discovery. From unveiling the horrors of the disparity of wealth in the title story, 'The Garden Party', to the devastating effects of loneliness and misogyny in 'Miss Brill', Mansfield's narratives never fail to leave their emotional stamp on their reader. Famed for her vivid depiction of the inner lives of her characters, Mansfield skilfully navigates the complexities of everyday relationships and societal expectations in this stunning masterclass of short story writing. This audiobook edition is expertly brought to life by Stephanie Racine.
