Fifteen vivid stories set in Europe and Mansfield's native New
Zealand populate this selection of tales inspired by the complex
nature of the human condition. The author delivers an insightful
look at modern behavior post-World War I. The Garden Party and
Other Stories features multiple tales highlighting the highs and
lows of contemporary life. The title story, "The Garden Party,"
centers on a wealthy young woman struggling with the concept of
mortality, while "The Daughters of the Late Colonel" follows two
sisters debating their livelihood after their father's death. These
stories present bold questions and internal conflicts that
profoundly affect each character. This selection is an enduring
part of Katherine Mansfield's legacy. Written during her final
years, The Garden Party and Other Stories is one of her most viable
and celebrated works. It's a delightful collection of short stories
fueled by the intricacies of human nature. With an eye-catching new
cover, and professionally typeset manuscript, this edition of The
Garden Party and Other Stories is both modern and readable.
