Condition: Used
An exhilarating collection (The New York Times Book Review) of ten blended stories from Nobel Prize-winning author Alice MunroThe rich texture of its narrative and the authors graceful style make [The Beggar Maid] a considerable accomplishment.-Joyce Carol Oates, Ms.In this vibrant series of interweaving stories, Alice Munro recreates the evolving bond-one that is both constricting and empowering-between two women in the course of almost forty years. One is Flo, practical, suspicious of other peoples airs, at times dismayingly vulgar. The other is Rose, Flos stepdaughter, a clumsy, shy girl who somehow-in spite of Flos ridicule and ghastly warnings-leaves the small town she grew up in to achieve her own equivocal success in the larger world.
