{"product_id":"9781847497291","title":"The Garden Party and Selected Short Stories : Annotated Edition by Katherine Mansfield","description":"When her wealthy family prepares to host a lavish summer party, the young, hitherto sheltered Laura Sheridan suddenly feels a kinship with the staff and the helpers hired to set up the venue for the festivities. As she learns of the death of one of their working-class neighbours, this burgeoning sense of class consciousness is heightened by a realization of her own mortality.   Published in 1922, at the height of literary modernism, `The Garden Party' is now considered one of the key texts of that movement. This volume, which also includes a wide selection of Katherine Mansfield's other short stories, is an invaluable resource for anyone wishing to discover one of the early twentieth century's finest writers.\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Paperback \/ softback","brand":"Gardners","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43205773557938,"sku":"9781847497291","price":7.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0612\/7193\/3106\/products\/9781847497291.jpg?v=1690723172","url":"https:\/\/backstory.london\/products\/9781847497291","provider":"Backstory","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
