Mavis Gallant Collected Stories

A collection of fifty-two stories of spare complexity, often pushing the boundaries of the form in boldly unconventional directions. It ranges from Paris to Berlin to Switzerland, from the Riviera to the Cote d'Azur, and features characters who are almost all exiles of one sort or another, as the author herself was the most of her expatriate life.

O colectie de cincizeci si doua de povesti de o complexitate de rezerva, deseori impingand granitele formei in directii indraznete neconventionale. Se intinde de la Paris la Berlin si pana in Elvetia, de la Riviera la Coasta de Azur si prezinta personaje care sunt aproape toti exilati de un fel sau altul, deoarece autoarea insasi a fost cea mai mare parte din viata ei de expatriat.
