Katherine Mansfield's Wellington - Redmer Yska talk 14 March
At lunchtime today (14 March) Redmer Yska will talk about his recent book 'A Strange Beautiful Excitement, Katherine Mansfield’s Wellington, 1888–1903’. He will explore how Wellington left an indelible mark on Mansfield. Moving between grubby Thorndon and the green valley of Karori, Yska, himself raised in Karori, retraced Mansfield’s old ways: the sights, sounds and smells of her childhood.
