Description

Within the nine spectacular tales that make up her famous eleventh series, Alice Munro defines new levels, making narratives that cycle and swerve like storage, and conjuring up figures as thorny and contrary as people we all know ourselves.A difficult-minded housekeeper jettisons the practices of an eternity due to a teenager’s practical joke. An university student visiting her brassy, unusual cousin stumbles on an amazing secret and its meaning in her own life. An incorrigible philanderer reacts with sudden elegance to his wife’s nursing-house love. Hateship, Friendship, Courtship, Loveship, Marriage is Munro at her serenely free from impression, seriously, finest, relentlessly watchful and gloriously gentle.
