The Life of Katherine Mansfield (Ex-Library)

Jonathan Cape Ltd, London, 1980. Secondhand hardback copy with dust jacket (torn - missing top portion of spine and top left corner of front cover), Spine light faded, some foxing and general wear.

In this book, Antony Alpers has grafted perspective character analysis and impeccable literary scholarship to a novelist's gift of narrative, and the result is a consummate portrait that restores one of the major figures of modern English letters to her rightful place.
