I have been reading through and keep finding stories I have read (sometimes not attaching her name to them) in a school anthology of long ago, or, more recently in Elleke Boehmer's excellent Empire Writing anthology. Starting to try to figure out where some good secondary reading might be, if anyone has suggestions.

"From Lottie," came her soft murmur. "Poor dear . . . such trouble . . . left foot . . . Doctor Blyth . . . flat foot . . . massage . . . so many robins this year . . . maid most satisfactory . . . Indian Colonel . . . every grain of rice separate . . . very heavy fall of snow." And her wide lighted eyes looked up from the letter. "Snow, Robert ! Think of it !" (The Man Without a Temperament)

“Make it a rule of life never to regret and never to look back. Regret is an appalling waste of energy; you can't build on it; it's only for wallowing in.”

This afternoon, I'm going to a lecture on the life and stories of Katherine Mansfield.
Somehow, I doubt very much that 100 years after my death, people will gather to discuss my life and stories, but you never know....you never know!

@silviazuletaromano yes, they are! I'm following along in real time, but a hundred years late, so for my it's 14 March 1923. Virginia's just published Jacob's Room and she still can't quite wrap her head around Kate Mansfield's recent death: "Who am I writing for now that Kate is dead?"

Really loved learning from Frances Wilson's 2/23/23 article on that among the author's many pseudonyms was "the Tiger." One day, I shall attain that level of confidence.

"The outsider: why Katherine Mansfield still divides opinion 100 years after her death."

Shunned by the Bloomsbury group, Katherine Mansfield was one of the 20th century’s most fearless and funny writers. And she paid dearly for the freedoms she claimed.

'I want to be all that I am capable of becoming.'

Katherine Mansfield died 100 years ago 9th January 1923 (born 14th October 1888). Brilliant short story writer. I adore her.
