The Happiness
Katherine Mansfield was born in Boswell, Wellington, New Zealand. To pursue a literary career, she moved to London in 1908, where she began a rebellious lifestyle. At the same time, she embarked on her career and became a renowned short story writer, known as "Katherine Mansfield of The New Age." The New Age was one of the most active weeklies in London at the time. Katherine Mansfield is celebrated as one of the greatest short story writers of the 20th century. After her death from tuberculosis, her works received widespread critical acclaim in English-speaking countries, France, and Germany. This book includes four stories: The Happiness, The Wind Blows, Mr. Rochester's Day, and The Garden Party. Through the experiences of four different characters, the stories portray their helplessness, confusion, and attitudes toward life in the society of their time.
