The Garden Party and Selected Short Stories by Katherine Mansfield
reflective
slow-paced
4.0
Somewhere between loving and deeply enjoying the first two short story collections. However, In a German Pension...well, it was nice to see the progression of her writing to Bliss, a period of about 9 years. From her two most famous works, I think she's pretty damn brilliant. I don't always read analyses of things I read, but I needed the extra context to appreciate the nuances of her writing. I would love to read more from Katherine Mansfield.
ps. Love both a queer subtext and overtone.
