From the cruel irony of 'A member of the Family' to the fateful echoes of 'The Go-Away Bird' and the unexpectedly sinister 'The Girl I Left Behind Me', in settings that range from South Africa to the Portobello Road, Muriel Spark coolly probes the idiosyncrasies that lurk beneath the veneer of human respectability, displaying the acerbic wit and wisdom that are the hallmarks of her unique talent.

The Complete Short Stories is a collection to be loved and cherished, from one of the finest short-story writers of the twentieth century.

All audio stories are recorded unabridged, by three versatile and high-profile actors and accomplished narrators; Emilia Fox, Richard E. Grant and Juliet Stevenson.

Eleştirmen yorumları

"Completely, searingly original. There is nobody remotely like her"
"Glittering, concise, funny and beautifully written"
"None could equal the cool perception with which she chronicles the darker mysteries of the human conidtion" (John Mortimer)
"One of the most decisive and unmistakable voices in contemporary fiction - youthful, witty, sly, maternal, intimate, and alive with opinion" (Stephen Schiff)
"My admiration for Spark's contribution to world literature knows no bounds. She was peerless, sparkling, inventive and intelligent - the crème de la crème" (Ian Rankin)
"It is perhaps her short stories that demonstrate her gifts best: wit, perception, acute characterisation, elegance and precision. They mark her out as one of the finest writers of her generation"
"A wholly original presence in modern literature" (Andrew Motion)
"Muriel Spark's novels linger in the mind as brilliant shards, decisive as a smashed glass is decisive" (John Updike)
"Dullness is as alien to her as inelegance"

Mad accents. What were they thinking? Fox doing the six counties as northern English? Lovely Grant going pure bonkers.
Really great stories (unsettling and funny) along with terrible ones..I wish I could go back with named stories.
