Description

**Winner of the Nobel Prize in Literature**

This first-ever selection of Alice Munro’s stories sums up her genius. Her territory is the secrets that cackle beneath the façade of everyday lives, the pain and promises, loves and fears of apparently ordinary men and women whom she renders extraordinary and unforgettable.
