Part of the Macmillan Collector's Library; a series of stunning, clothbound, pocket-sized classics with gold foiled edges and ribbon markers. These beautiful books make perfect gifts or a treat for any book lover. This edition is edited and introduced by Professor Meg Jensen.

Prelude & Other Stories by Katherine Mansfield showcases her remarkable ability to delve into the human mind; in stories such as 'The Garden Party' she reveals the tension between innocence and corruption, the dark side of love and romance are explored in 'Bliss' and 'Love à la Mode', and in the title story, 'Prelude', inspired by her own childhood, her concern is for the isolated and the lonely.

About the Author
Kathleen Mansfield Beauchamp was born in New Zealand in 1888. Her father sent her and her sisters to school in London where she was editor of the school newspaper. Back in New Zealand she started to write short stories but she grew tired of her life there. She returned to Europe in 1908 and went on to live in France, Italy, Germany and Switzerland. A restless soul who had many love affairs, her modernist writing was admired by her peers such as Leonard and Virginia Woolf who published her story 'Prelude' on their Hogarth Press. In 1917 she was diagnosed with tuberculosis and she died in France aged only 34.
