What a beautiful collection of classic short stories, first published in 1920 (104 years ago) that depict little slices of life! I adored Katherine Mansfield's vibrant characters and captivating descriptions. This was such a thought-provoking and memorable audiobook, with exquisitely immersive narration by Juliet Stevenson.

I love reading Audrey audiobooks because they infuse so much fun with insightful nuggets of information, a Spotify playlist, and beautiful illustrations. The Audrey recaps, character descriptions and connections are so handy while reading. It's like having a clever and aesthetic book club on your phone, thanks to these brilliant people!
