The characters who populate an Alice Munro story live and breathe.
THE WINNER OF THE NOBEL PRIZE IN LITERATURE
The characters who populate an Alice Munro story live and breathe. Passions hopelessly conceived, affections betrayed, marriages made and broken: the joys, fears, loves and awakenings of women echo throughout these twelve unforgettable stories, laying bare the unexceptional and yet inescapable pain of human contact.
