It is always exciting to follow the formal development of a major writer. It yields not only some insight into the creative struggle of a dynamic mind but also reveals to us the complexities of the dynamics of creativity itself. Katherine Mansfield is one of those who gave the form of the short story in the twentieth century an imprint of her own sensibility and persona, bringing, forth its tremendous potential for articulating the precarious states of being and becoming, the acute sense of human predicament and destiny. Dr. A.S. Anand Murty has critically analysed the development of technique in Katherine Mansfield’s short stories with due diligence and rigour of an academic and the enlightened intelligence of a sensitive reader of fiction. The study map out illuminatingly the development of technique, the spiritual growth, the ripening of the masterly vision of Katherine Mansfield. It would be a rewarding experience for all who want to understand modern fiction, to enjoy its technical departures and innovations, to appreciate its richness and to comprehend the factors behind the power, stature and impact of a major writer of our times.
