Katherine Mansfield (1888-1923) was one of the leading figures in
the development of the modernist short story and her writings were
a profound influence on writers such as Virginia Woolf and D.H.
Lawrence. Presenting for the first time draft manuscripts of some
of her most important stories, this book gives scholars and
students alike vivid new insight into Mansfield’s creative
process. With manuscripts for each text presented in facsimile and
transcript, detailed notes throughout compare early drafts with
later revisions and the final published work. In the final section
of the book leading scholars offer vivid new critical readings
exploring the manuscript history of these stories. A detailed
descriptive listing of the major Mansfield archives is also
included to help researchers explore the work further. The stories
included are: ‘Je ne parle pas francais’; ‘Sun and Moon’;
‘Revelations’; ‘The Stranger’; ‘The Daughters of the Late
Colonel’; ‘Mr and Mrs Dove’; ‘Marriage à la Mode’;
‘The Voyage’; ‘Six Years After’; ‘The Fly’.
