THE LOVE OF A GOOD WOMAN

DEAR LIFE

Moments of change, chance encounters, the twist of fate that leads a person to a new way of thinking or being: the stories in Dear Life build to form a radiant, indelible portrait of just how dangerous and strange ordinary life can be.

HATESHIP, FRIENDSHIP, COURTSHIP, LOVESHIP, MARRIAGE

In these stories, whole lives come into focus through single events or sudden memories which bring the past bubbling to the surface. The past, as the characters discover, is made up not only of what is remembered, but also what isn't.

OPEN SECRETS

In this collection of eight short stories, nearly all set in a small Canadian town, Munro examines her seemingly mundane characters’ varied lives and hidden passions.

SELECTED STORIES: ALICE MUNRO

A vintage collection of short stories spanning thirty years of the author's award-winning work.

TOO MUCH HAPPINESS

These are beguiling, provocative stories about manipulative men and the women who outwit them, about destructive marriages and curdled friendships, about mothers and sons, about moments which change or haunt a life. Stories that surprise and delight, turning lives into art, expanding our world and shedding light on the strange workings of the human heart.

THE VIEW FROM CASTLE ROCK

Alice Munro pieces her family's history into gloriously imagined fiction. A young boy is taken to Edinburgh's Castle Rock, where his father assures him that on a clear day he can see America, and he catches a glimpse of his father's dream. In the stories that follow, the dream becomes a reality on a long voyage to the New World.
