Delphi Complete Works of Katherine Mansfield (Illustrated) oleh Katherine Mansfield

A New Zealand-born master of the short story, Katherine Mansfield evolved a distinctive prose style with overtones of poetry. Focusing on psychological conflicts, her delicate stories exhibit an obliqueness of narration and a subtlety of observation, revealing the influence of Anton Chekhov. Her work had a significant influence upon the development of the English short story as a form of literature. For the first time in publishing history, this eBook presents the complete works of this Modernist master, with beautiful illustrations, rare texts, concise introductions and the usual Delphi bonus material.
