«In a German Pension» is Katherine Mansfield's collection of short stories, published by Penguin Classics in paperback (117 pages, in English).
Katherine Mansfield's first published collection, this volume brings together stories and sketches of a playful and biting tone about life in a Bavarian spa town. A prim narrator observes guests such as the conceited Frau Oberregierungsrat, the greedy Herr Rat and the snobbish Frau Doktor, with a mix of sympathy and satire towards German customs.
This Penguin Classics edition, published in 1973, includes an introductory note by John Middleton Murry.
