Recenzii

This awesomely comprehensive and research-rich handbook to Katherine Mansfield will be a go-to resource for readers for a generation and more to come, ranging from the long-term specialist to the newly hooked browser. Everything about her work is here, both the mainstream and the quirky-its musical interests and intertexts; its global, western and southern settings; its New Zealand yearnings; and her important shaping influence on the convulsion of new media, thought and forms that was modernism. Perhaps, most of all, the reader will find here wide-ranging reflections on the immense power of the short story in her ingenious hands.
The Bloomsbury Handbook to Katherine Mansfield is an outstanding contribution to Katherine Mansfield studies. It is exceptionally well- structured by its editor, Todd Martin, whose introduction to the book is in itself a comprehensive and essential historical examination of the critical reception of Mansfield's work during the latter part of the twentieth century. It provides readers with an essential grounding to help them contextualize the new critical approaches taken by the twelve notable Mansfield scholars who have written the insightful, often intriguing, essays which make up the Handbook.
