Comment on KATHERINE’S WISH from Vince O’Sullivan
The co-editor of The Collected Letters of Katherine Mansfield sent the following comment to the author, Linda Lappin:
“It’s not an easy or simple thing to write fiction which keeps faith with the life it is based on, so the reader will say, ‘There is nothing here that falsifies’, as well as ‘This has the imaginative flair of story telling, the freedom of its form.’ Linda Lappin has immersed herself in Mansfield’s life, and emerged from it with a story to narrate on her own terms; a fiction charged with the enthusiasm of a good researcher, and carried through with a novelist’s verve.”
