description: Though best known for her short stories, Katherine Mansfield was also an accomplished poet. The only edition of her poems, published in the 1920s, has long been out of print, and her poetry is known today only through a handful of anthology entries. This book presents a fresh selection ofMansfield's verse, including all of her published poetry and a number of unpublished and uncollected pieces. O'Sullivan's introduction, which relates Mansfield's poetry to her prose and sets it within the larger literary context of her time, presents the poetry in a completely new light. Hedemonstrates that she was innovative to a degree that has never before been recognized.
