Sinopsis
Katherine Mansfield
Adapted by Gina D. B. Clemen
Human interest

Set in New Zealand and in England, these three short stories by Katherine Mansfield explore the mysterious dark corridors of the mind, where we find happiness, despair and a complex network of other human emotions. In The Garden Party, which is set in New Zealand, Mansfield explores class consciousness, sensitivity and the co-existence of life and death. In The Singing Lesson, a young music teacher experiences a cascade of emotions in the space of a few hours. Feminism, vanity and materialism are the themes of A Cup of Tea.
Mansfield is one of the great modernist writers who reveals the complexity of human behaviour in seemingly ordinary situations.
