ਲੇਖਕ ਬਾਰੇ
Kathleen Mansfield Murry (14 October 1888 – 9 January 1923) was a New Zealand writer, essayist and journalist, widely considered one of the most influential and important authors of the modernist movement. Her works are celebrated across the world, and have been published in 25 languages. Born and raised in a cottage on Thorndon’s Tinakori Road, Wellington, Mansfield was third eldest child in the Beauchamp whānau. After being raised variably by her parents and her beloved grandmother, she visited school in Karori with her sisters before attending Wellington Girls College. The Beauchamp girls later switched to the elitist Fitzherbert Terrace School, where Mansfield met her long-time companion, muse and later lover, Maata Mahapuku. Mansfield wrote short stories and poetry under a variation of her own name, Katherine Mansfield, which explored anxiety, sexuality and existentialism alongside a developing New Zealand identity. When she was 19, she left New Zealand and settled in England, where she became a friend of D. H. Lawrence, Virginia Woolf, Lady Ottoline Morrell and others in the orbit of the Bloomsbury Group. Mansfield was diagnosed with pulmonary tuberculosis in 1917, and she died in France aged 34.
