Katherine Mansfield: The Story-Teller

Kathleen Jones

Weaving together intimate details from Katherine Mansfield’s letters and journals with the writings of her friends and acquaintances, Kathleen Jones creates a captivating drama of this fragile yet feisty author: her life, loves and passion for writing. The story takes us beyond Mansfield’s death in 1923 to explore the life of her husband, John Middleton Murry - and his relationship with three further wives - as he manipulated the posthumous publication of Mansfield’s unpublished work.In this vivid portrayal of one of the world’s foremost short story writers, the first new biography for a quarter of a century, Kathleen Jones crafts an intriguing narrative of Katherine Mansfield’s relationships, illnesses and creativity.
