Drawn from the five volumes of her Collected Letters , this completely new selection of Katherine Mansfield's correspondence ranges from her first schoolgirl exchanges of 1903 to her last letters from the Gurdjieff Institute of Fontainebleau twenty years later. Brilliantly conveying her restless personality throughout a life that has become almost legendary for its vivacity and courage, this collection presents the voice of a new kind of twentieth-century woman moving erratically, but determinedly, toward self-definition. It includes many letters to John Middleton Murry and others to such friends as Lady Ottoline Morrell, Frieda Lawrence, Virginia Woolf, Bertrand Russell, and Dorothy Brett, as well as to her own family and chance acquaintances.
