"In all her work...there is an effortless, almost conversational tone, and we know we are in the presence of an art that works to conceal itself, in order to celebrate its subject." Publisher's noteIn the thirteen stories in her remarkable second collection, Alice Munro demonstrates the precise observation, straightforward prose style, and masterful technique that led no less a critic than John Updike to compare her to Chekhov. The sisters, mothers and daughters, aunts, grandmothers, and friends in these stories shimmer with hope and love, anger and reconciliation, as they contend with their histories and their present, and what they can see of the future. AnnotationThese 13 stories (her third collection, published in 1974) consolidate Alice Munro's skill as an observer of the lives of ordinary people--often women and girls living in rural southwestern Ontario--though here Munro ventures further afield in some of the stories. Titles include "How I Met My Husband," "Walking on Water," "The Found Boat," and "Marrakesh." If You Enjoy "Something I'Ve Been Meaning to Tell You (Paperback)", May We Also Recommend:
