“Pitting a breezy English sensibility against stuffy German manners makes this the funniest, most caustic collection of Mansfield’s stories.”

Guardian (London)

First published in 1911, Katherine Mansfield’s collection In a German Pension was inspired by her extended stay in a spa town in Bavaria in 1909, during which she suffered a miscarriage. The collection brought her instant fame and popularity as a short story writer, particularly as her amusing—though less than favourable—caricatures of the Germans were very popular at that time.
