About This Book

Six of Nobel Prize–winning author Alice Munro's revelatory short stories that unfold the wordless secrets that lie at the center of the human experience.
 
"Alice Munro is often able to say more in thirty pages than an ordinary novelist is capable of in three hundred. She is a virtuoso of the elliptical . . . the master of the contemporary short story. . . . Munro, like few others, [has] come close to solving the greatest mystery of them all: the human heart and its caprices."—From the Presentation Speech, Nobel Prize in Literature 2013
