From the dust jacket: "This comprehensive bibliography of Katherine Mansfield covers her books, pamphlets, translations from the Russian, contributions to periodicals and newspapers; also selections of her stories, other prose, and poems, and translations… Other sections include extracts from unpublished material, radio and television productions; film and stage productions, and the locations of manuscripts. Hitherto unrecorded unsigned reviews…" Laid-in is a copy of Anatole Braun's review from the Jan 1990 ABMR which states: "This is going to be a very dull report. When a book is perfect and when it is likely to remain the final word on the subject for decades, is it really necessary to say more? ... Katherine Mansfield collectors and libraries must have the book.". First Edition. Hardcover. New condition/New dust jacket. 8vo. xxviii, 396pp. Great Packaging, Fast Shipping.

About About Books

About Books (Genny and Michael Winne, proprietors, formerly of Parsippany, New Jersey) has been selling rare and OP books since 1985. Besides book fairs and mail-order catalogues, long-time collectors and dealers will remember our lengthy For Sale ads in the Antiquarian Bookman and similar magazines. Our inventory of over 40,000 volumes is especially strong in the specialties listed, but contains fine books in a variety of other fields as well. Because most of our books are stored in protective boxes, rather than on shelves, they cannot be viewed as a whole. If you wish to visit us to examine specific titles, please provide 24 hours notice and we will make them available for your inspection. Phone calls to (702) 750-2722 are welcome, but please, only between the hours of 8am and 10pm (west coast time).
