Features: Days pass by, many children have seen dollhouses andly discuss them in school, but only the children of the Keefe family walk away alone. British female writer Mansfield is skilled at uncovering the deep emotional changes within people from the mundane aspects of daily life. In the early 20th century, she rose to prominence in the British literary scene as a dark horse and was regarded alongside Joyce as a founder of English short fiction. She narrates the innocent and sensitive nature of children under the harsh social class consciousness, their silence, endurance, and the helpless alienation from wealthy children. Through her simple and straightforward style, she reveals more satire and a sense of justice.
