"Although Katherine Mansfield never achieved any immediate triumphs, except perhaps for the impact of her exquisite description of female psychology, one can confidently assert that her work is of a superior order, that is possesses permanent value, and that her talent was genuinely innovative. Her short stories have varied styles, like a mixed bouquet of flowers, but they are not completely unconnected with each other. Like a collection of paintings in which each illuminates the other, their aesthetic form expresses an organic harmony. Many readers used to think her work very east and, as a result, misunderstood it, wronging a writer who approached her craft in such a careful and conscientious way."
