KATHERINE MANSFIELD

This blog is my labor of love and a little bit of an obsession. It is dedicated to the life and work of Katherine Mansfield

It seems to me that there is a great change come over the world since people like Us believed in God. God is now gone for all of us. Yet we must believe and not only that we must carry our weakness and our sin and our devilishness to somebody. I don’t mean in a bad, abasing way. But we must feel that we are known that our hearts are known as God knew us. Therefore Love today between “lovers” has to be not only human, but divine today. They love each other for everything and through everything, and their love is their religion. It can’t become anything less - even affection - I mean it can’t become less supreme because it is an act of faith to believe!
Katherine Mansfield, from a letter to Dorothy Brett, August 29th, 1921
