The Garden Party and Other Stories

Katherine Mansfield

London, 1922

 

First edition, first printing, in original pale rose dust jacket. 

 

Original gray-blue cloth, the primary binding with ochre lettering. First printing hallmarks of errors on pp. 103, 134, and 241. End-leaves with some discoloration, few small spots and dustiness on the top-edge, else Fine. Dust jacket a shade faded in areas, light general wear mostly on the spine, else Near Fine. A really nice example housed in a beautiful custom clamshell case. 

 

Mansfield, less commonly evoked but an equally brilliant Modernist writer, lived a full, dynamic, turbulent life in her short 34 years and this great collection of short stories is her magnum opus.

 

“I was jealous of her writing. The only writing I have ever been jealous of.” - Virginia Woolf
