Family furnishings, by Alice Munro



A collection of selected stories from 1995 – 2014.  As Munro stated that she was done with writing, it can be presumed to be one of her final collections – although a recent story says she is quoted as saying, “Every day I have mixed messages to myself over whether I will retire. I have promised to retire but now and then I get an idea."  However, at 82, it is likely that there won’t be a huge outpouring from this Nobel-winner.  She is simply the best and I’m grateful she has been so prolific.  Her stories benefit from re-reading, and I had read many of these when they came out.  616 pp.
