The Garden Party and Other Stories is a 1922 collection of short stories by the writer Katherine Mansfield. "At the Bay" "The Garden Party" "The Daughters of the Late Colonel" "Mr and Mrs Dove" "The Young Girl" "Life of Ma Parker" "Marriage à la Mode" "The Voyage" "Miss Brill" "Her First Ball" "The Singing Lesson" "The Stranger" "Bank Holiday" "An Ideal Family" "The Lady's Maid" About the Author Kathleen Mansfield Murry (née Beauchamp; 14 October 1888 - 9 January 1923) was a New Zealand writer and critic who was an important figure in the modernist movement. Her works are celebrated across the world and have been published in 25 languages. Born and raised in a house on Tinakori Road in the Wellington suburb of Thorndon, Mansfield was the third child in the Beauchamp family. She began school in Karori with her sisters, before attending Wellington Girls' College. The Beauchamp girls later switched to the elite Fitzherbert Terrace School, where Mansfield became friends with Maata Mahupuku, who became a muse for early work and with whom she is believed to have had a passionate relationship. Mansfield wrote short stories and poetry under a variation of her own name, Katherine Mansfield, which explored anxiety, sexuality, Christianity, and existentialism alongside a developing New Zealand identity. When she was 19, she left New Zealand and settled in England, where she became a friend of D. H. Lawrence, Virginia Woolf, Lady Ottoline Morrell and others in the orbit of the Bloomsbury Group. Mansfield was diagnosed with pulmonary tuberculosis in 1917, and she died in France aged 34. (wikipedia.org)
