Blue Wolf Reviews
This is surely a book of which Mansfield would have approved...her meticulous work navigates easily between the macro- and microscopic.
- Aimee Gasston, New Zealand Studies Network
[A] shrewdly sympathetic account of Mansfield’s early years.[A] sensitive portrait of a vital, contrary young woman, still locked in a love-hate relationship with the country and family which she would come to celebrate in fiction.
- Elizabeth Lowry, Times Literary Supplement
Gerri Kimber is to be congratulated on her meticulous research: her illuminating, elegantly written account of Katherine Mansfield's early years will give scholars and literary enthusiasts alike far greater understanding and appreciation of Mansfield's mature work.
