Product Description
Product Description
Alice Munro is universally acknowledged as the finest short fiction writer in English. Bringing together ten incomparable stories from six different collections, No Love Lost confirms her pre-eminent status. Focusing on the many paths of falling in love, each of these stories of ordinary people reveals new truths about people as real – and as extraordinary – as ourselves.
In selecting this unique gathering of stories, Jane Urquhart noted the brilliance of Munro’s fiction, suggesting that Munro's genius guides us “through love’s labyrinth, insisting all the while that we keep our eyes wide open to its complicated foliage, its shadows, its piercing blasts of light.”
Contents:
Bardon Bus (from The Moons of Jupiter)
Carried Away (from Open Secrets)
Mischief (from Who Do You Think You Are?)
The Love of a Good Woman (from The Love of a Good Woman)
Simon’s Luck (from Who Do You Think You Are?), Hateship, Friendship, Courtship, Loveship, Marriage (from Hateship, Friendship, Courtship, Loveship, Marriage)
The Bear Came Over the Mountain (from Hateship, Friendship, Courtship, Loveship, Marriage)
The Albanian Virgin (from Open Secrets) Meneseteung (from Friend of My Youth)
The Children Stay (from The Love of a Good Woman)
