About this title: The stories in this collection range from Mansfield's earliest piece, "The Tiredness of Rosabel", a poignant unfolding of frustrated longings, to other tales of isolation and oppression such as the powerfully bleak "The Woman at the Store" and the dialogues "Late at Night" and "The Black Cap".
