Oxford Bookworms Library: Level 5:: The Garden Party and Other Stories (Oxford University Press)

Oh, how delightful it is to fall in love for the first time! How exciting to go to your first dance when you are a girl of eighteen! But life can also be hard and cruel, if you are young and inexperienced and travelling alone across Europe...or if you are a child from the wrong social class...or a singer without work and the rent to be paid.

Set in Europe and New Zealand, these nine stories aby Katherine Mansfield dig deep beneath the appearances of life to show us the causes of human happiness and despair.The Oxford Bookworms Library offers high-quality storytelling and a great reading experience, with a world wide range of classic and modern fiction, non-fiction and plays.
