Dear Life Condition:Like New George Orwell's first novel presentsIn story after story in this brilliant new collection, Alice Munro pinpoints the moment a person is forever altered by a chance encounter, an action not taken, or a simple twist of fate. Her characters are flawed and fully human: a soldier returning from war and avoiding his fiance, a wealthy woman deciding whether to confront a blackmailer, an adulterous mother and her neglected children, a guilt ridden father, a young teacher jilted by her employer.
