Edad: adultos jóvenes MANSFIELD KATHERINE Wellington, 1888-1923 . Katherine Mansfield, escritora neozelandesa de origen británico, se instaló en Londres a los 18 años para estudiar música y comenzar su carrera como escritora. Sus relatos, de carácter poético, delicado e irónico, destilan una honda y sutil sensibilidad, capaz de captar con maestría los estados de ánimo de sus personajes. Con un estilo heredado de Chèjov, sus cuentos se sitúan en los albores de las nuevas formas literarias que habrían de nacer en el siglo XX. Aquejada de tuberculosis, Mansfield falleció a los 35 años de edad, tras pasar los últimos cinco años de su vida buscando un remedio para su enfermedad.
