Xiao, Qian. Mansifei'erde de san ge duan pian [ID D30060].
"…Most of Mansfield's works are limited in subject-matter to the family life of the middle class, which she knew very well. She spared no effort all her life experimenting with how to present the minute details of the inner world of her characters using the language of a poet… Mansfield can be regarded as the master of the short story in modern English literature. She has been dead for more than sixty years, and yet with the passing of time, her work is gaining more and more attention, having been translated into Chinese, Japanese, French, German, Russian, and many other languages, and generating a steady output of treatises and theses."
