Description du livre Paperback. Etat : new. Paperback. A wickedly funny (Newsweek) collection of ten short stories from Nobel Prizewinning author Alice Munro, one of the most eloquent and gifted writers of contemporary fiction (Michiko Kakutani, The New York Times). Each of her collections demonstrates such linguistic skill, delicacy of vision, and . . . moral strength and clarity.Chicago Tribune A woman haunted by dreams of her dead mother. An adulterous couple stepping over the line where the initial excitement ends and the pain begins. A widow visiting a Scottish village in search of her husbands pastand instead discovering unsetting truths about a total stranger. The miraculously accomplished stories in this collection not only astonish and delight, but also convey the unspoken mysteries at the heart of all human experience. The masterythe almost numinous ability to say the unsayablemakes Friend of My Youth a genuine literary event. In the powerful, haunting stories of Munro's new collection, men and women, in the midst of contemporary quandaries and crises, recall the long-buried yearnings, dreams, and hard choices that have given shape to their lives.
