Dance of the Happy Shades

Book Description

Discover Alice Munro’s first mesmerising and atmospheric short story collection.

‘A remarkable writer whose major characters emerge in shining clarity... A major talent is at work here’ Los Angeles Times

Alice Munro's territory is the farms and semi-rural towns of south-western Ontario.
In these dazzling stories she deals with the self-discovery of adolescence, the joys and pains of love and the despair and guilt of those caught in a narrow existence. And in sensitively exploring the lives of ordinary men and women, she makes us aware of the universal nature of their fears, sorrows, and aspirations.
