Demasiada Felicidad
Demasiada Felicidad | Alice Munro
Libro destacado de The New York Times Uno de los mejores libros del a?o The Atlantic Monthly, The Boston Globe, Los Angeles Times, San Francisco Chronicle, Chicago Tribune, Kansas City Star, The Economist, Slate Diez magn?ficos relatos por una de las autoras m?s queridas y galardonadas - ganadora del premio Nobel de Literatura? y el Man Booker International Prize. An?cdotas en apariencia banales se transforman en las manos de Munro en pura emoci?n, y su estilo muestra estas emociones sin dificultad, gracias a un talento excepcional que arrastra al lector dentro de las historias casi sin pre?mbulos. Una joven madre recibe consuelo inesperado por la muerte de sus tres hijos, otra mujer reacciona de forma ins?lita ante la humillaci?n a la que la somete un hombre; otros cuentos describen la crueldad de los ni?os y los huecos de soledad que se crean en el d?a a d?a de la vida de pareja. Como broche de oro, en el ?ltimo cuento acompa?amos a una matem?tica rusa y viviremos con ella su historia de amor con un hombre que hizo lo que supo por decepcionarla.

These are great stories that reach out and grab you, a little dark, a little twisty. They will stay with you and make you think.

I started this collection this morning and it almost made me late to work because I didn‘t want to put it down. Not a bad beginning. 😀

Cathythoughts Sounds wonderful! Stacked 3y
merelybookish Munro is an all-time fave. She never disappoints. 3y
Lcsmcat @merelybookish Right? My sister studied with her at Bennington back in the day, which was when I discovered her. And I‘ve liked everything I have read. (edited) 3y

Always remember that when a man goes out of a room, he leaves everything in it behind...when a woman goes out she carries everything that happened in the room along with her 🍷

Of all the collections of Munro stories I‘ve read so far, I‘ve found this one the weakest, which is not to say it wasn‘t haunting.

The fiction aisle at Munro's Books in Victoria, Canada. This is one of the most beautiful things I've ever seen. 😍

#riotgrams day six: short stories. I love reading Canadian short stories, I‘ve got more than a few volumes, and of course when talking about short stories you can‘t forget the queen Alice Munro

The award winning author, Alice Munro writes a collection of short stories about different people and their reactions to the events happening in their lives. This is my first taste of this author and I loved them all yet felt each story could easily be enhanced to a full length story. Munro is very good at writing from all viewpoints, not just females, and she always leaves you wanting more. I would definitely read more of her works.

MrBook You've talked me into it! 😊👍🏻 8y
proudmum Another one to add to the ever growing TBR pile 😂 8y

Loved this story collection! Usually gripped a couple of pages into each story. Munroe does fabulous things with time shifts and retrospective narration.

shawnmooney Best fiction writer alive today, IMHO 8y

🍩☕️📖 I recently heard one of Munro's stories read Lauren Groff on an old episode of the New Yorker Fiction Podcast and it confirmed my next read. Also, doughnuts 👌🏻
