Recenzje

"This important collection gathers an international group of scholars to position Mansfield's work in global literary frameworks. Lively, engaging, and timely interpretations emerge here, reading Mansfield's writing alongside that of a range of authors with whom her work has not been compared before. Highly original and drawing on a dazzling range of reference, these essays offer new understandings not only of Mansfield's life and work, but of the short story's history and place in world literature."-Prof. Rishona Zimring, Lewis & Clark College
