Description: "In stories that are more personal than any she's written before, Alice Munro pieces her family's history into gloriously imagined fiction. Other stories take place in more familiar Munro territory, the town and countryside around Lake Huron, where the past shows through the present and strong emotions stir beneath the surface of ordinary coming and goings. Evocative, gripping, sexy, unexpected - these stories reflect a depth and richness of experience" -- publisher website (May 2007).
