Katherine Mansfield Audio Book

Katherine Mansfield was compared by contemporary critics to Chekhov for her insights into ordinary events, and this recording contains four of her best stories.

In ‘The Daughters of the Late Colonel', two sisters are recently bereaved; while in ‘Her First Ball', a young girl attends her first dance. ‘The Singing Lesson' features Miss Meadows, a music teacher in turmoil; and in ‘The Strangers’, a middle-aged couple are reunited.

Poignant and moving, these four stories portray ordinary lives with a vivid humanity and imaginative truth.
