Sobre El Autor

Katherine Mansfield was born Katherine Beauchamp in Wellington, New Zealand on October 14, 1888, the third daughter of a prominent banker. She attended the Wellington College for Girls before entering Queen's College in London in 1903. Her interest in the cello led to lessons at the Royal Academy mostrar más of Music, where she became secretly engaged to a young prodigy named Arnold Trowell, who already had a successful concert career. Upon being summoned back to New Zealand by her father in 1906, she decided to abandon music in favor of writing. She soon had three stories published in a Melbourne monthly and gained her father's consent to return to England. Once there, she became depressed when she found that Trowell no longer loved her, and she rushed into a hasty marriage to a young musician, only to leave him a few days later. She had a miscarriage, which marked the beginning of her decline in health. After returning to England in 1910, Katherine Beauchamp published her work under the name Katherine Mansfield. A collection of her stories, "In a German Pension," was published in 1911. A year later, she met John Middleton Murry, who eventually became her second husband when she was finally able to secure a divorce. By the time of this marriage in 1918, Mansfield was found to have tuberculosis. Her ill health, combined with the death of her brother in World War I, turned the focus of her work inward and on her homeland. Her memoirs, collected in a book entitled "Bliss," secured her reputation as a writer, and she followed it up with the equally acclaimed "Garden Party and Other Stories." Her lyrical style and stream of consciousness method placed her along side James Joyce and Virginia Woolf for her strength of characterization and her subtlety of detail. Katherine Mansfield died on January 9, 1923 at the Gurdjieff Institute for the Harmonic Development of Man at Fontainebleau. (Bowker Author Biography) mostrar menos

La familia Burnell parece una anodina familia neozelandesa de clase media de finales del siglo XIX como cualquier otra. Sin embargo, su cotidianidad y sus silencios esconden todo un universo: de la frustración y la rabia que hay detrás de la apariencia serena de Linda, atrapada en el papel de madre y esposa ideal, a la inocencia de sus tres hijas, que mientras juegan intuyen la brutalidad y la injusticia del mundo de los adultos, pasando por el anhelo que brilla en la mirada de la tía Beryl, que desea sentirse amada por un hombre apuesto y apasionado.

Esta edición reúne tres de los relatos más importantes y autobiográficos de Katherine Mansfield: Preludio (1918), En la bahía (1922) y La casa de muñecas (1923). Juntos conforman un tríptico que nos acerca a los Burnell, una de las familias más fascinantes de la literatura universal.

KATHERINE MANSFIELD (Wellington, Nueva Zelanda, 1888-Fontainebleau, Francia, 1923) es una de las escritoras modernistas más influyentes, además de una de las mejores cuentistas en lengua inglesa de todos los tiempos. Aunque sus diarios y sus cuentos han sido ampliamente divulgados y traducidos, su poesía ha recibido, hasta ahora, poca atención por parte de la crítica. En sus poemas, Mansfield se mueve entre lo mágico y lo cotidiano, evidenciando su habilidad para conciliar polos aparentemente opuestos: lo decadente con lo moderno, la alegría con la tristeza, lo infantil con lo macabro o lo estético con lo político.
En esta edición bilingüe, traducida por Jimena Jiménez Real, se incluye una selección de los poemas escritos por Mansfield a lo largo de su vida, así como los treinta y cinco poemas de la colección La criatura terrestre, descubierta en 2015 en el archivo de la Biblioteca de Newberry, Chicago, e inédita en inglés hasta 2016, que publicamos completa en español por primera vez.
