En una pensión alemana, algo infantil y otros cuentos es el primer libro que publicó Katherine Mansfield, y aunque pasara casi desapercibido en su momento, encontramos ya en él a una narradora dueña de un mundo y de un estilo a su temprana madurez. Cuentos directos y punzantes, sarcásticos e incluso hirientes, aunque también, a menudo, llenos de una recóndita ternura en los que se nos muestran, con todas sus irisaciones, sutilezas y matices, la contradictora naturaleza del género humano. Por el libro desfilan los huéspedes de la pensión, de clase alta y acostumbrados a una vida de comodidades y excentricidades, personajes de lo más variopinto que buscan en este balneario una cura para sus enfermedades. Entre ellos se encuentra una dama inglesa, supuestamente la propia autora, que narra la mayoría de los capítulos. También conoceremos el día a día de la gente corriente de fuera del balneario donde el trabajo en pésimas condiciones y la diferencia entre clases sociales es lo habitual.
