A book of minimal size - a real pocket book!
Back cover:
When their father goes away to town, a seaside summer's holiday begins in earnest for the Burnell children. So it does for their mother, grandmother, aunt and serving-maid, each released into her chosen form of daydream or adventure.
In this brilliantly evocative portrait of a place and a family, Katherine Mansfield shows her virtuoso mastery of both technique and feeling.

This is a charming little novel or short story! It took quite a few years before I came to reading it - far too many.

Such a tiny little book, couldn't help picking it up at the meet up we had today at the Helsinki Book Fair. Thanks!
Beautifully written day-in-a-life short story that evokes days gone by. I especially liked Mansfield's language and dialogue. Thanks for sharing!
