We owe to her the prosperity of the free story, Elizabeth Bowen said of Katherine Mansfield: she untrammelled it from conventions. Here, at last, is the evidence in full: the edition Mansfield deserves.Professor David Trotter, University of Cambridge'This much needed and very welcome work does two important things: It gives us all of Mansfields fiction, with useful notes; and it removes many of John Middleton Murrys intrusions into the stories he edited after Mansfields death. We all owe the editors, Gerri Kimber and Vincent OSullivan, a debt of gratitude for this excellent edition of the work of a major modernist writer.'Professor Robert Scholes, Brown UniversityThe Edinburgh Edition of the Collected Fiction of Katherine Mansfield: Volume 1 Fiction 18981915Edited by Gerri Kimber and Vincent OSullivanThe first complete edition of Katherine Mansfields fictionThese two volumes collect together 219 of Mansfields stories, including 4 newly discovered, previously unpublished stories. Together the volumes expand considerably upon the largest previous single collected edition of 85 stories. Gathered here are Mansfields bestloved stories, stories uncollected, unpublished or left incomplete during her lifetime, the full text of The Aloe, from which Mansfield shaped her groundbreaking work Prelude, and her own manuscript versions of several stories later edited by her husband, John Middleton Murry. The volumes are arranged in chronological order, so that readers can trace Mansfields progress as a creative writer, monthbymonth, from her first schoolgirl story in 1898 to her last completed story in July 1922.Mansfield will be read differently, and more accurately, as a result of this edition. The annotations and their crossreferencing to her letters and notebooks deepen what we know of the context and genesis of her fiction. This edition is testament to Mansfields importance among twentieth century Englishlanguage writers and to her rare and original handling of the short story form.The Edinburgh Edition of the Collected Works of Katherine Mansfield in 4 volumes
