Group readaloud: Short Stories by Katherine Mansfield
Details
This is a read-aloud session, with all text shared on-screen, and discussions of what we just read between rounds – like a small-group seminar. There are no prerequisites; you do not need to purchase the book for yourself, although we encourage you to do so, as it is well worth it! The starting point for the current session will generally be given in a pinned comment on the event page.
In this session, we will first read "The Doll's House", which is part of Katherine Mansfield's autobiographical trilogy of stories/novellas about her childhood in New Zealand.
Next we'll read two critical analyses of it, followed by how it was first published by the Woolf's Hogarth Press. If time permits, we'll return to discussing "Prelude".

Latecomers (unless we know you) will generally NOT BE ADMITTED once the reading starts. If this is your first time with us, consider joining five minutes early, so we can work out any technical issues you may be having.
