Kathleen Mansfield
Beauchamp Murry (14 October 1888 – 9 January 1923) was a
prominent modernist writer of short fiction who was born and
brought up in colonial New Zealand and wrote under the pen name of
Katherine Mansfield. Mansfield left for Great Britain in 1908 where
she encountered Modernist writers such as D.H. Lawrence and
Virginia Woolf with whom she became close friends. Her stories
often focus on moments of disruption and frequently open rather
abruptly. Among her most well known stories are "The Garden Party,"
"The Daughters of the Late Colonel," and "The Fly." During the
First World War Mansfield contracted extrapulmonary tuberculosis
which rendered any return or visit to New Zealand impossible and
led to her death at the age of 34.
