The stories collected here are based on Katherine Mansfield's experiences in a Bavarian spa. They reflect her own spirited response to the constraints she felt were imposed upon her as a woman in the opening years of the twentieth century. From amusing depictions of class inequaltites on display to the tale of a young man taking advantage of a woman's extreme poverty, the stories are packed full of sharp, frank and satirical observations on human life.
