Anton Cechov war ihr Lehrmeister, und wie bei Cechov sind es die kleinen, scheinbar profanen Dinge, die Katherine Mansfields Aufmerksamkeit bannten. Das zeigen die hier versammelten Geschichten, die Mansfield in den letzten Jahren ihres Lebens geschrieben hat und die zum Besten gehören, was in diesem Genre je erreicht wurde.

New in Black Classics, and with an introduction by Ali Smith.

Innovative, startlingly perceptive and aglow with colour, these fifteen stories were written towards the end of Katherine Mansfield's tragically short life. Many are set in the author's native New Zealand, others in England and the French Riviera. All are revelations of the unspoken, half-understood emotions that make up everyday experience - from the blackly comic 'The Daughters of the Late Colonel', and the short, sharp sketch 'Miss Brill', ...

»Was kann man denn auch tun, wenn man dreißig ist, in seine eigene Straße einbiegt und plötzlich von einem Gefühl des Glücks überwältigt wird - reinen Glücks! -, als hätte man mit einemmal ein strahlendes Stück dieser Spätnachmittagssonne verschluckt, und nun brannte es einem in der Brust, und winzige Funkenregen stoben durch den ganzen Körper, in jeden Finger und jede Zehe?« »Glück« ist die bekannteste Erzählung der neuseeländischen Autorin,...

Set in Europe and New Zealand, these nine stories by Katherine Mansfield dig deep beneath the appearances of life to show us the causes of human happiness and despair.

Fünfzehn Erzählungen sind unter dem Titel »Das Gartenfest« versammelt, fünfzehn Porträts von Frauen, Männern und Kindern, Charakterstudien von Personen und Beziehungen, die in ihrer einfühlsamen Darstellung vornehmlich aus der Perspektive der Frau eher unscheinbar wirkende Geschehnisse aus dem alltäglichen Leben beschreiben. So unscheinbar die Ereignisse auf den ersten Blick wirken, so grundlegend, ja existentiell sind sie für die Betroffenen.

Kathleen Mansfield Beauchamp Murry was a prominent modernist writer of short fiction who was born and brought up in colonial New Zealand and wrote under the pen name of Katherine Mansfield. Mansfield left for Great Britain in 1908 where she encountered Modernist writers such as D.H. Lawrence and Virginia Woolf with whom she became close friends.

Tuttavia, a partire dal 1909 [...], scrisse diverse poesie, in un modo che era insieme senza pretese formali eppure esigente, semplice e tuttavia acuto, talora ironico, sensibile e attento ai particolari. [...] Nei testi poetici Katherine Mansfield espone il nucleo più indifeso del suo porsi in relazione con...
