Synopsis "¿Quién Te Crees Que Eres? / Who Do You Think You Are? (in Spanish)"

Lumen recupera una extraordinaria colección de cuentos de Alice Munro, la autora de Mi vida querida y ganadora del Premio Nobel de Literatura, donde la escritora explora el vínculo entre dos mujeres y su evolución a lo largo de los años. « Cómo lo hará Alice Munro? Lo que consigue parece magia . --Sara Mesa «Munro tiene una mente prodigiosa. Es precisa, natural y cuenta como nadie la interioridad y el fluir de vidas enteras en unas pocas páginas . --Rodrigo Muñoz Avia «Aprender a sobrevivir, a pesar de la cobardía y la cautela, de los sustos y la aprensión, no es lo mismo que ser desdichado. Y además es interesante . En esta serie de historias entrelazadas, Munro recrea el vínculo entre dos mujeres en el transcurso de casi cuarenta años: la pragmática, desconfiada y a veces un tanto vulgar Flo, y su hijastra, Rose, una chica torpe y tímida pero cuya ambición la empuja a dejar atrás sus raíces y emprender su propio camino. Cuento a cuento, pincelada a pincelada, la gran maestra del relato nos envuelve dentro de una narración que fluye como una novela y a la que consigue dotar de profunda emoción y trascendencia. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION WINNER OF THE NOBEL PRIZE IN LITERATURE Born into the back streets of a small Canadian town, Rose battled incessantly with her practical and shrewd stepmother, Flo, who cowed her with tales of her own past and warnings of the dangerous world outside. But Rose was ambitious - she won a scholarship and left for Toronto where she married Patrick. She was his Beggar Maid, 'meek and voluptuous, with her shy white feet', and he was her knight, content to sit and adore her. Alice Munro's wonderful collection of stories reads like a novel, following Rose's life as she moves away from her impoverished roots and forges her own path in the world.
