Description
The Progress of Love by Alice Munro
WINNER OF THE NOBEL PRIZE IN LITERATURE 2013
A divorced woman returns to her childhood home where she confronts the memory of her parents’ confounding yet deep bond. The accidental near-drowning of a child exposes the fragility of the trust between children and parents.
A young man, remembering a terrifying childhood incident, wrestles with the responsibility he has always felt for his younger brother. In these and other stories, Alice Munro proves once again a sensitive and compassionate chronicler of our times.
Drawing us into the most intimate corners of ordinary lives, she reveals much about ourselves, our choices, and our experiences of love.
