Book Description
Com a facilidade e maestria que consagraram a sua escrita, Alice Munro explora os mais íntimos e transformadores momentos de experiência — momentos que formam a vida, momentos de percepção do peso, do poder e da natureza do amor. Uma mulher divorciada regressa à sua casa de infância onde é confrontada com as memórias do confuso mas profundo laço com os seus pais. O quase afogamento acidental de uma criança revela à mãe a fragilidade da confiança entre filhos e pais. Um rapaz, ao recordar um terrível acidente de infância, luta com a responsabilidade que sempre sentira pelo seu infeliz irmão mais novo. Um homem traz a sua amada a uma visita à sua ex-mulher, apenas para se sentir estranhamente próximo da companheira que perdera.Nestas e noutras histórias, Alice Munro revela-se uma vez mais como a cronista sensível e compassiva dos nossos tempos. Fala-nos dos recantos mais íntimos de vidas comuns, revela-nos muito sobre nós, as nossas escolhas e as nossas experiências com o amor.
