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.
