ISBN: 9781551993966 bzw. 1551993961, in Englisch, Mcclelland & Stewart, neu, E-Book, elektronischer Download.
Open Secrets: Open Secrets, Alice Munro`s eighth book, consists of eight matchless stories, each one as rich as a full novel. All of them provide compulsive reading - and rewarding re-reading. `Perhaps you will be surprised to hear from a person you don`t know and that doesn`t remember your name.” These intriguing words begin a letter dated 1917 to the Librarian in Carstairs, Ontario (the heart of `Alice Munro Country” ). The letter sweeps us away into a world of secrets and revelations where nothing - not even a courtship by letter that leads, over time, to a solid marriage - is as it originally seems. The Ontario stories range from `A Wilderness Station,” which gives an account of an 1852 tree-felling accident and sheds light on the harsh life of the pioneers, all the way to the present, where family names known to us appear again in a world of TV shows and snowmobiles. Just as the stories range back and forth in time, they also travel far to distant settings. Much of `The Albanian Virgin” is set in a remote mountain area where a Canadian tourist in the 1920s is captured by bandits her tale of escape is comforting to a Victoria bookseller escaping from her own former life. `The Jack Randa Hotel” brings a deserted wife in cold pursuit to Australia, which leads to another intriguing letter. `Dear Mrs. Thornaby, It has come to my attention that you are dead...” Things that cannot be explained happen here. In the title story a lawyer`s wife has a flash of insight - illogical, unprovable and terrifying - into the fate of a missing teenager in another, the appearance of a long-dead visitor reveals the grip of a former love. Yet the true magic lies in the way that Alice Munro makes everything here - unexpected marriages, elopements, acts of sudden vengeance - unfold with the ease of the inevitable. This is the mark of a great writer, and it is stamped on every page of this book. Englisch, Ebook.
