#1 NATIONAL BESTSELLER - Fourteen stunning short stories from Nobel Prize-winning author Alice Munro, one of the great short story writers not just of our time but of any time (The New York Times Book Review).

Wise and unforgettable. Dear Life is a wondrous gift; a reminder of why Munro's work endures.--The Boston Globe

A BEST BOOK OF THE YEAR: The New York Times Book Review, The Atlantic, Vogue, The Washington Post, NPR, San Francisco Chronicle

In this brilliant collection, Alice Munro pinpoints the moment a person is forever altered by a chance encounter, an action not taken, or a simple twist of fate. Her characters are flawed and fully human: their stories draw us in with their quiet depth and surprise us with unexpected turns. And while most are set in her signature territory around Lake Huron, some strike even closer to home: an astonishing suite of four autobiographical tales offers an unprecedented glimpse into Munro's own childhood.

Exalted by her clarity of vision and her unparalleled gift for storytelling, Dear Life shows how strange, perilous, and extraordinary ordinary life can be.
