Beskrivning
Alice Munro turns to her family for inspiration; and what follows is a fictionalised, brilliantly imagined version of the past.‘One of my very favourite writers’ Claire TomalinFrom her ancestors' view from Edinburgh's Castle Rock in the eighteenth century to her parents' thwarted ambitions in Ontario, and her own awakening in 1950s Canada, Munro effortlessly weaves fact and myth to create an epic story of past and present, proving that fiction has much to tell us about life.Winner of the Nobel Prize in LiteratureWinner of the Man Booker International Prize 2009

Det är inte med någon tvekan man förstår Munroes Nobelpris 2013. Personligen är språkkunskapen inte tillfyllest för att till 100% tillgodogöra mig Munroes språk.

Starting in Scotland, we learn about poor immigrants crossing the Atlantic centuries ago and how they settle down in North America. Following generations of the authors family and others. A book to learn from. Generously told in a language that is highly enjoyable.
