Synopsis

A small-town girl who dreams of greater things, trying to get away from a place that wants to hold her back. A series of stories exploring the pursuit of ambition, and the fear and shame of potential failure.

In this award-winning collection from the acclaimed Alice Munro, we follow Rose and her stepmother, Flo: residents of the poorer side of Hanratty. Rose is determined to get away, to pursue her ambitions, but as she moves through her life, from university in Vancouver to a crumbling marriage to a career as an actress and interviewer, she is constantly plagued by the question that has haunted her since the beginning: "Who do you think you are?"
