Ten superb new stories by one of our most beloved and admired writers—the winner of the 2009 Man Booker International Prize.

In the first story a young wife and mother receives release from the unbearable pain of losing her three children from a most surprising source. In another, a young woman, in the aftermath of an unusual and humiliating seduction, reacts in a clever if less-than-admirable fashion. Other stories uncover the “deep-holes” in a marriage, the unsuspected cruelty of children, and how a boy’s disfigured face provides both the good things in his life and the bad. And in the long title story, we accompany Sophia Kovalevsky—a late-nineteenth-century Russian émigré and mathematician—on a winter journey that takes her from the Riviera, where she visits her lover, to Paris, Germany, and, Denmark, where she has a fateful meeting with a local doctor, and finally to Sweden, where she teaches at the only university in Europe willing to employ a female mathematician.

With clarity and ease, Alice Munro once again renders complex, difficult events and emotions into stories that shed light on the unpredictable ways in which men and women accommodate and often transcend what happens in their lives.

Too Much Happiness is a compelling, provocative—even daring—collection.

用户评价

平淡的叙述，可怕的生活

喜欢munro简洁的风格 微言大义 一如既往地惊艳

很好。关乎生死的惊悚包裹在平淡坦然的叙事语气里，被日常的安和质地化掉了、吸收了。这种沉着是人生的底气。

这本里的故事就要爽快很多。只是每篇的结尾都停在很奇怪的地方。有时候我都不免怀疑是不是因为我看的是盗版，所以不全。

简短深刻，余韵悠长。读完顿觉世界太残酷。
