Description

Katherine Mansfield's In a German Pension is a remarkable collection of short stories, displaying all Mansfield's skill in the genre.

Written shortly after Mansfield visited Germany as a young woman, these short stories form a series of satirical sketches of German characters. From a young wife's preoccupation with her husband's stomach, to a society lady's inability to see beyond the latest fashion, Mansfield depicts everyday events and the minute changes of human behaviour in the most exquisite detail. In a German Pension reveals her as a true disciple of Chekhov.

About the Author

Katherine Mansfield is remembered as the initiator of the modern short story.An outsider herself by geography and temperament, she used her writing to express a sense of alienation and introspection. Eschewing traditional methods of plotting in her stories, she wrote of atmosphere and internal struggle, and although she lacked the reputation of a truly great writer during her own lifetime, she is now regarded as one of the pioneers of modern English literature.
