{"product_id":"katherine-mansfields-women-aimzse-gasston-9781399550871","title":"Katherine Mansfield's Women","description":"Katherine Mansfield's astute eye for power imbalances, including those that are gendered, is apparent across her fiction. Her working life was also fraught with the types of material needs set out by Virginia Woolf in \u003ci\u003eA Room of One's Own\u003c\/i\u003e, published after Mansfield's death in 1929. Although the young Mansfield decided she 'could not be a suffragette' (in a letter of 17 September 1908 to Garnet Trowell), her work often addresses social injustices with portrayals of characters who are hemmed in by circumstance and reaching toward a sense of personal freedom and authenticity. This volume comprises a number of essays by Mansfield specialists on the theme of 'Katherine Mansfield's Women', in addition to a diverse range of creative writing and a reassessment of J. D. Fergusson's enigmatic portrait of a woman, titled Poise. By looking at the place of women in both her personal writings and fiction, it explores the textual and cultural aspects of Katherine Mansfield and the female experience in all its contexts.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Aimée Gasston\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 139955087X\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781399550871\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Edinburgh University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 08\/31\/2025\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 248\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.16lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.21h x 6.14w x 0.63d","brand":"Aimée Gasston","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":47202276802815,"sku":"9781399550871","price":120.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_bd9b3988-7ca2-4fd6-bfbf-f357fed9c30d.jpg?v=1756820131","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/katherine-mansfields-women-aimzse-gasston-9781399550871","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
