Modern Classic A fine collection of stories from this year's Nobel prize winner. Many of these deal with women who came of age in the '50s discovering themselves in the '70s, and they are simply brilliant. Frequently I found myself at the end of a story, having been totally absorbed all along, wondering "how exactly did she get me here?". I re-read a couple of them, just for the pleasure of watching it all unfold when I knew how it would come out. The stories catch you up the way a novel does, and even if the characters fail to find full satisfaction, I was not disappointed once. Reviewed in 2013 her writing combines the obvious, clear human relationships and emotions that are written well with insight and are easy to identify with and the obscure allusion or metaphor or description which brings up obscure feelings. it lingers. the stories are full of a resigned melancholy. edit: you know what through the first few stories i loved it and each one made me feel a strong sense of melancholy but as they've gone on I've started hating them. I can't explain why I've changed my mind so much - maybe I'm tired of her style even though I've spaced them out and read something else in between. I don't know. I got near the end of the penultimate story and realised it was yet another story about 2nd edit on finishing: i think i was just being too grouchy. the last story is great again. her writing is generally brilliant just goes over the same themes a lot and as someone who hasn't had the experiences involved I'm probably bad at properly understanding and appreciating the stories. but she's definitely a great writer and some of the stories are brilliant. i just wasn't in the right mood for all of it i think Amistad de juventud nos ofrece las historias de distintas mujeres derrotadas por una existencia mediocre. La viuda que visita el escenario de las glorias militares de su marido, la mujer que sueña cada noche con su madre muerta o la que se obsesiona por una poetisa menor, asisten impotentes al derrumbe paulatino de sus vidas. Una serie de relatos extraordinarios en los que Munro despliega su asombroso dominio narrativo y su talento para crear nuevos universos a través de la sutileza de los detalles. keine Rezensionen | Rezension hinzufügen

A woman haunted by dreams of her dead mother. An adulterous couple stepping over the line where the initial excitement ends and the pain begins. A widow visiting a Scottish village in search of her husband's past and instead discovering unsettling truths about a total stranger. The ten stories in this collection not only astonish and delight but also convey the unspoken mysteries at the heart of all human experience. Keine Bibliotheksbeschreibungen gefunden. |
