Produktbeschreibung

**WINNER OF THE NOBEL PRIZE IN LITERATURE**

**WINNER OF THE MAN BOOKER INTERNATIONAL PRIZE**

Alice Munro captures the essence of life in her brilliant collection of short stories.

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.
