The incomparable Alice Munro’s bestselling and rapturously acclaimed Runaway is a book of extraordinary stories about love and its infinite betrayals and surprises, from the title story about a young woman who, though she thinks she wants to, is incapable of leaving her husband, to three stories about a woman named Juliet and the emotions that complicate the luster of her intimate relationships. In Munro’s hands, the people she writes about–women of all ages and circumstances, and their friends, lovers, parents, and children–become as vivid as our own neighbors. It is her miraculous gift to make these stories as real and unforgettable as our own.
Alice Ann Munro, née Laidlaw, is a Canadian short-story writer who is widely considered one of the world's premier fiction writers. Munro is a three-time winner of Canada's Governor General's Award for fiction. Her stories focus on human relationships looked at through the lens of daily life. She has thus been referred to as "the Canadian Chekhov."

好久没看到这么喜欢的书了 the tragedy in triviality, the grandeur in insipidness; loved the space around words, space that creates a realistic flow of time that is itself mesmerizing

看到一些(瘦竹)非常尖刻但也很有说服力的书评,但还是觉得不给这样的书五星绝对是一种苛责。相信门罗在读者群中收获到的共鸣之广泛是分布在不同深度层面上的,既有浮泛的,也有无穷复杂的,她对于复杂似乎也有很深的痴迷和确认。她的小说里有一种很简单但是明确的宽慰,那就是人和人之间的共情,可能在任何时刻,用任何方式,在任何角色,或者在角色和全知而抽离的叙述者之间建立。作为读者,这种总有落脚处的感觉令人安定。人心... 看到一些(瘦竹)非常尖刻但也很有说服力的书评,但还是觉得不给这样的书五星绝对是一种苛责。相信门罗在读者群中收获到的共鸣之广泛是分布在不同深度层面上的,既有浮泛的,也有无穷复杂的,她对于复杂似乎也有很深的痴迷和确认。她的小说里有一种很简单但是明确的宽慰,那就是人和人之间的共情,可能在任何时刻,用任何方式,在任何角色,或者在角色和全知而抽离的叙述者之间建立。作为读者,这种总有落脚处的感觉令人安定。人心确实是个古老的主题,但在不解决哲学问题的时候,它也是一部心灵史。拥有门罗的这个“当代”几乎已经要过去了,下一个“当代”我们还会有类似的记录者吗?应该是会的吧。 (展开)
