Murry's) efforts, to give an insight into the mind of the renowned modernist short stories writer. Content: Biography The Life of Katherine Mansfield by Ruth E. Mantz & J.

As Young's perspective expands, a series of historical portraits - a boy with a rare skeletal disease, a French postman who built a stone fortress by hand, a generation of Japanese shut-ins - strike unexpected personal harmonies, as an unselfconscious childhood gives way to painful shyness in adolescence.
