Mystery. Romantic Comedy. An Early History of Paris Sleuths Extraordinaire. On an old borrowed map hidden beneath her bed, Francine Robinsworth Duchesney had scribbled in bright blue "the other side of the world." Born with exceptional curiosity in a small town jam-packed with well-preserved century-old mysteries, where idle indiscretions lined cellars and attics like jars of last year's apricots, she found no lie was so well constructed, no secret so well kept, no treasure so deeply buried, that she could not discover and reveal it to uneasy witnesses. So, when this youngest of eight Duchesney children receives an unexpected invitation to go abroad, most of her neighbors are relieved to see the annoyingly little amateur sleuth go. "Whatever the unknown in Europe," Francine told her parents at supper, "it has to be better than the known in a small town, where truth is hidden behind smiles, pleasantries, and an over abundance of stretch lace at weddings. Later, she would write in her diary, "Whatever the truth is about my own life, it's still waiting somewhere else on a blank page in a place where people make no attempt to predict the future based upon a person's past." Indeed, Europe will teach Francine how easily a young woman's mind and heart can be swayed by a dangerously vivid imagination and the unprecedented eagerness of intriguing men. In Switzerland, one man will ask her to stay "a while." In Paris, another will invite her to stay "forever." Only one will change her destiny forever with a small token, a mystery, and a priceless souvenir of A Summer Abroad. All Rights Reserved (c) 2016 Peggy Kopman-Owens (Cover Art (c) 2016 Roger Kopman)

This generous collection of fifty-two stories, selected from across her prolific career by the author, includes a preface in which she discusses the sources of her art. A widely admired master of the short story, Mavis Gallant was a Canadian-born writer who lived in France and died in 2014 at the age of ninety-one. Her more than one hundred stories, most published in The New Yorker over five decades beginning in 1951, have influenced generations of writers and earned her comparisons to Anton Chekhov, Henry James, and George Eliot. She has been hailed by Michael Ondaatje as "one of the great story writers of our time." With irony and an unfailing eye for the telling detail, Gallant weaves stories of spare complexity, often pushing the boundaries of the form in boldly unconventional directions. The settings in The Collected Stories range from Paris to Berlin to Switzerland, from the Italian Riviera to the C te d'Azur, and her characters are almost all exiles of one sort or another, as she herself was for most of her expatriate life. The wit and precision of her prose, combined with her expansive view of humanity, provide a rare and deep reading pleasure. With breathtaking control and compression, Gallant delivers a whole life, a whole world, in each story.
