Classic Women's Short Stories (Unabridged Selections) Audiobook

" I will need to find and read more of Katherine Mansfield's works. I cannot believe that I never read anything by her at KU. "

" Wonderful audio CD of stories by authors of 19 th & early 20 th century. I was unaware that Kate Chopin died in 1904. She was really ahead of her time. "

" I had never read any of these authors previously. I really enjoyed the Virginia Wolfe short story. "

" The Garden Party -- a timeless classic of innocence, loss, and deep emotion! "

" It's a pity KM didn't live in New Zealand her whole life but certainly this beautiful inspired her work in some way. "

" I was bored and couldn't get into the story at all. It seemed totally pointless. Overly descriptive with nothing actually happening. "

" The stories are beautifully written and the most part light on complete storyline. It's like they are exercises. She is a fabulous writer. I think she is not strong on ending the story. "

" I absolutely adored the first story, At The Bay, but was disappointed from there on out. The stories are just kind of boring, and I found myself pushing through to finish. "

" Very, very good. Also - this particular edition came with a very interesting, useful and well written introduction, that definitely helped me to enjoy the stories even more. "

" I learned that I don't really get Katherine Mansfield. Overly descriptive and downright odd in parts. "

" Garden Party, an invisible wall separated the sorrow of death and joy of life. "

" Only read the Garden party from this book. It's a nice story about the differences between a rich family and the poor folks. "

" Fifteen short stories. The first couple of stories are long on descriptive writing and short on interest. However, as I continued reading, the stories got better and better: They became more concise, sparer, more focused and altogether very powerful. Delightful read. "
