Jennifer Walker – Elizabeth of the German Garden – A Literary Journey
(The Book Guild, 2013). 482pp. A biography of Elizabeth von Arnim.

Born in 1866, ‘Elizabeth’ achieved an enviable literary reputation, producing over twenty works of fiction before her death in 1941. The book is beautifully produced and illustrated, and contains a valuable chapter on the friendship between Mansfield and her older cousin in the early 1920s. Telling the story of a courageous and independent woman whose life was as extraordinary as any of her fiction, this book is also essential reading for Mansfield scholars.

'She was irresistible and a child with the children' - Jeanne Renshaw, born 1892, youngest sister
'So often people have passed judgement on the way Katherine behaved to me, saying that "she made use of you". But if she did make use of me, it was because I saw to it that she did.' - Ida Baker, born 1888, companion and friend
'I remember her best on the occasions when she would be going about on my arm. She was petite and an absolute head-turner.' - Richard Murry, born 1902, brother of Mansfield's husband, John Middleton Murry
Her Bright Image: Impressions of Katherine Mansfield, is a radio documentary made in London in the winter of 1973-4 by Moira Taylor, who recorded three people close to Mansfield in different ways. Ida Baker (LM), Jeanne Renshaw and Richard Murry search their memories of nearly half a century before to recall the Mansfield each knew. The recordings were made in the fiftieth anniversary year after Mansfield's death.
Written and narrated by Moira Taylor with sound monitor Diane Bailey, and produced in New Zealand by Moira Taylor and Alwyn Owen, with readings from the works of Katherine Mansfield by Janice Fing and Christine Bartlett.
Remastered from cassette to CD, this recording is available now via the Katherine Mansfield Society, or by contacting Moira Taylor.

By Lorae Parry
Published October 2010, by:
THE WOMEN’S PLAY PRESS in Association with THE PLAY PRESS
THE PLAY focuses on Katherine Mansfields’ friendships and relationships with women, in particular her relationship with Virginia Woolf and her ongoing friendship with Ida Baker (L.M.) It is compiled entirely from the words of Katherine Mansfield, Ida Baker, Virginia Woolf and other members of The Bloomsbury Group.
'The past twenty years have seen Mansfield credited with her rightful place as one of the important figures in twentieth century Modernism. For much longer than that she has held the imagination of writers who attempt to catch that glinting, elusive, compelling personality - at least a dozen plays, numerous poems, several novels. Few, in my view, get closer than does Lorae Parry's short, incisive play in suggesting Mansfield's instinctive engagement with life, and her finding the way to talk of it with originality and flair.
Parry's K.M.,the 'colonial' girl at large in a hard and dazzling world, takes us close to 'the real thing', It is a play that does justice to that amusing, clever, compassionate, constantly self-examining personality it engages with. And it shows us Virginia Woolf as well in a freshly slanting light.'
