The Garden Party and Other Stories

Zusatztext The fifteen stories vary in length and tone from the opening story! 'Atthe Bay'! a vivid! impressionistic evocation of family life! to the short!sharp sketch 'Miss Brill'! in which a lonely woman's precarious sense ofself is brutally destroyed when she overhears two young lovers mockingher. Sensitive revelations of human behaviour! these stories reveal Mansfield'ssupreme talent as an innovator who freed the story from its conventionsand gave it a new strength and prestige.
