Abstract

Katherine Mansfield is one of New Zealand’s most celebrated authors and enjoys a widespread international following. With her contemporaries, James Joyce and Virginia Woolf, she forms part of the literary avant-garde whose innovations in the second and third decades of the twentieth century signalled the emergence of modernism. Her reputation rests on a collection of eighty-eight deceptively simple short stories, in which she pioneered many new literary techniques and exerted an important influence on the evolution of the short story in English.
