    This carefully crafted ebook: "KATHERINE MANSFIELD - The Woman Behind The Books: The Life of Katherine Mansfield (Including Her Letters, Journals, Essays & Articles)" is formatted for your eReader with a functional and detailed table of contents.
    It is said that Woolf was jealous of Mansfield's story-telling skills, and probably the only person of whom the former was in jealous awe of. So who was Katherine Mansfield? Presented here is a fine collection of Mansfield's non-fictional works, the ones that got saved through her friend's and husband's (J. M. Murry's) efforts, to give an insight into the mind of the renowned modernist short stories writer. A must read!

    John Middleton Murry (1889-1957) was a famous editor and husband of Katherine Mansfield. He is responsible for collecting and editing all of Mansfield's manuscripts, in spite of the tumultuous relationship between the two, during and after Mansfield's lifetime.

    Katherine Mansfield

    Katherine Mansfield was a popular New Zealand short-story writer best known for the stories "The Woman at the Shore," "How Pearl Button Was Kidnapped," "The Doll’s House," and her twelve-part short story "Prelude," which was inspired by her happy childhood. Although Mansfield initially had her sights set on becoming a professional cellist, her role as editor of the Queen’s College newspaper prompted a change to writing. Mansfield’s style of writing revolutionized the form of the short story at the time, in that it depicted ordinary life and left the endings open to interpretation, while also raising uncomfortable questions about society and identity. Mansfield died in 1923 after struggling for many years with tuberculosis.
