¶Unter Uns, 1884. First edition in English, 1884, under the title Our Own Set, translated by Clara Bell (New York). First edition of this translation. Born in Prague in 1854, Kirschner was part of the German-speaking community, at the time in the majority in Bohemia. She travelled throughout Europe during her formative years, rubbing shoulders with figures from the literary elite, and became well-known for her insightful and often highly amusing portrayals of high society. Her nom de plume was taken from a character in one of Turgenev's novels.
