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

The man in the room next to mine has got the same complaint as I. When I wake in the night I hear him turning. And then he coughs. And I cough. And after a silence I cough. And he coughs again. This goes on for a long time. Until I feel we are like two roosters calling to each other at a false dawn. From far-away hidden farms.
Katherine Mansfield, from her Notebooks
