Away from her - alice munro

WINNER OF THE NOBEL PRIZE(R) IN LITERATURE 2013 Alice Munro has long been heralded for her penetrating, lyrical prose, and in The Bear Came Over the Mountain - the basis for Sarah Polleys film Away From Her -- her prodigious talents are once again on display.

As she follows Grant, a retired professor whose wife Fiona begins gradually to lose her memory and drift away from him, we slowly see how a lifetime of intimate details can create a marriage, and how mysterious the bonds of love really are.
