follow Robert Salesby, a man who has carefully set aside his own desires in order to care for his fragile, demanding wife. In a quiet European hotel meant for rest and recovery, daily routines unfold with delicate precision—meals, walks, silences—each masking an undercurrent of exhaustion and unspoken resentment.

Story0
Katherine Mansfield verlässt mit zwanzig Jahren ihre neuseeländische Heimat, um in London Schriftstellerin zu werden. Doch erst einmal landet sie schwanger in der Pension eines bayerischen Kurorts. Dort kann sie ihre Beobachtungsgabe literarisch ausleben, vor allem wenn sie auf Menschen trifft, die während der Kur das enge Korsett gesellschaftlicher Zwänge ablegen. Entstanden sind messerscharfe und sehr amüsante Erzählungen. Über scheinbare Banalitäten verdeutlichen sie tief verankerte Verhaltensmuster, Vorurteile und Klischees im beginnenden 20. Jahrhunderts. Nina Hoss leiht der Pionierin der modernen Short Story ihre Stimme.

Story0
Katherine was born on the 14th October 1888 into a prominent family in Wellington, New Zealand, the middle child of five. At 19 Katherine left for England, where she met and befriended the modernist writers D.H. Lawrence and Virginia Woolf, amongst others. She then travelled to Europe before returning to New Zealand. There she began to write the short stories that she would later become so famous for. But there was another less-heralded side to Katherine’s writings; that of poetry. Her verse certainly reflects much of the themes of her life and interests.

Story0
"È un aloe, Kezia" disse Linda. "Non fa mai fiori?" "Sì, bambina mia" disse la madre. Chinò la testa verso Kezia e, socchiudendo gli occhi, le sorrise: "Una volta ogni cento anni". È dal desiderio di dar voce alla terra natale, la Nuova Zelanda, "una terra sconosciuta da far guizzare per un istante davanti agli occhi del Vecchio Mondo", che tra il 1915 e il 1916 nasce "L'aloe", che Katherine Mansfield chiamava "il mio romanzo" e dal quale avrebbe poi tratto uno dei suoi racconti più intensi, "Preludio".

Story0
Il titolo di questo libro è il titolo di una poesia di Coleridge che è il tema del più lungo dei racconti, pubblicati postumi, scritti dal 1908 al 1921, a solo due anni dalla morte prematura della scrittrice, di cui Virginia Woolf ha detto: "E' l'unica scrittura che io abbia mai invidiato". Il filo conduttore dei racconti, e forse della vita, dell'autrice, è il passaggio continuo dalla vita al sogno, o meglio da un mondo ad un altro, legati da fili sottilissimi, sempre sul punto di rompersi.

¡Qué bello es enamorarse por primera vez! ¡Qué emocionante ir a tu primer baile con dieciocho años! Pero la vida puede ser cruel cuando eres joven e inexperto. Como un retrato en mosaico de su propia vida de amores y desamores, opulencia y miserias, de ambiciones y censuras, la extraordinaria escritora neozelandesa Katherine Mansfield condensa el espíritu modernista de los locos años veinte y la bohemia en esta recopilación de relatos.

At the Bay is a 1922 short story by Katherine Mansfield. It was first published in the London Mercury in January 1922 in twelve sections, and later reprinted in The Garden Party and Other Stories (1922) with a short descriptive coda which is now the thirteenth section. The story represents Mansfield's best mature work, a luminous example of her literary impressionism. While writing it at the Chalet des Sapins, she was coming to terms with her relationship with Murry and with her own origins and identity.

"The Young Girl" is a 1920 short story written by Katherine Mansfield. Mrs. Raddick's and her beautiful daughter waited on the steps of the casino. The daughter was incredibly beautiful with flushed cheeks, blue eyes, and golden curls. She "might have just dropped from this radiant heaven" (79), and Mrs. Raddick seemed to think so too - if her appreciative glances were any indication. The girl; however, appeared only bored as if heaven had been full of casinos and they no longer held any interest for her.
