Family Furnishings. Selected Stories, 1995-2014

Here is a selection of Munro´s most accomplished and powerfully affecting short fiction from the last two decades, a companion volume toA Wilderness Station: Selected Stories, 1968-1994. These stories encompass the fullness of human experience, from the wild exhilaration of first love (in "Passion") to the punishing consequences of leaving home ("Runaway") or ending a marriage ("The Children Stay"). And in stories that Munro has described as "closer to the truth than usual"-"Dear Life," "Working for a Living," and "Home"-we glimpse the author´s own life.
