About this audiobook
Katherine Mansfield
Kathleen Mansfield Beauchamp was born in New Zealand in 1888. Her father sent her and her sisters to school in London, where she was editor of the school newspaper. Back in New Zealand, she started to write short stories but she grew tired of her life there. She returned to Europe in 1908 and went on to live in France, Italy, Germany and Switzerland. A restless soul who had many love affairs, her modernist writing was admired by her peers such as Leonard and Virginia Woolf, who published her story ‘Prelude’ on their Hogarth Press. In 1917 she was diagnosed with tuberculosis and she died in France aged only thirty-four.

- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5With my unsophisticated NJ accent, I found it necessary to listen twice. I needed to focus on the King's English narration. Sweet voice. I gradually trained my ear.
Pleasant, short stories depicting the daily lives and "hardships" of the "HAVES" class.
