Description

Beautifully written and illustrated with maps and stunning photography, Katherine Mansfields Europe is part travelogue, part literary biography, part detective story and part ghost story. Guided by Mansfields journals and letters, Redmer Yska pursues the traces of her restless journeying in Europe, seeking out the places where she lived, worked and a century ago this year died.
