Summary
Winner, 1990 Trilliam Book Award

The ten miraculously accomplished stories in Alice Munro's Friend of My Youth not only astonish and delight but also convey the unspoken mysteries at the heart of all human experience. They are haunting stores of women and men in the midst of contemporary quandries and crises—lives so universal, they seem to involve us all. (From the publisher.)
