The Collected Letters of Katherine Mansfield: Volume II: 1918-September 1919 cover

This volume, the second of four, includes her correspondence from early 1918 to the autumn of 1919. Her love for Middleton Murry, her response to the First World War, and her acceptance of the inevitable advance of tuberculosis, are handled with wit and warmth, in a text which has been transcribed afresh from the original letters.

'admirable edition ... an important contribution to the Clarendon Press editions of literary correspondence. The editorial machinery is helpful without being obtrusive: Vincent O'Sullivan's introductions and notes are sensitive, well-informed, and illuminating, and Margaret Scott has grappled heroically with the transcription of Katherine Mansfield's handwriting' Karina Williamson, St Hilda's College, Oxford.
