The Garden Party and Other Stories

More about the book

Set in the early 20th century, this collection features a variety of short stories that explore themes of class, identity, and the complexities of human relationships. Mansfield’s modernist style captures the subtleties of everyday life through characters like the introspective Miss Brill and the conflicted figures in "The Garden-Party." The collection not only showcases her literary prowess but also provides insight into her life and friendships with contemporaries like Virginia Woolf. A new biography adds depth to this classic work.
