Originally published in 1920, Bliss and Other Stories, is an iconic collection of Katherine Mansfield's masterful narratives that include The Man Without a Temperament. This captivating work embodies the author's signature style and unmistakable tone.
Bliss and Other Stories consists of fourteen anecdotes written during the early 1900s. It features Mr. Reginald Peacock's Day, which follows a disgruntled husband who harshly criticizes his wife, and The Wind Blows, a surprising tale about a girl's revelation surrounding a memory from her childhood. Pictures centers a downtrodden woman on the brink of poverty, while The Little Governess follows a naïve young woman as she travels from France to Munich.
