A WILDERNESS STATION - Based on the short story by Alice Munro

‘Her most romantic, and riskiest book yet.’
Val Ross, Globe and Mail, on Open Secrets

“One of the strongest stories from her latest collection.”
Diane Turbide (MacLean’s) on A Wilderness Station, from Open Secrets.

The most effective is “A Wilderness Station”, with its evocation, in brilliantly mimicked letters, of the brutality, stoicism and chaos of the time when God-fearing men and women were improvising their way into the American wilderness.
John Updike, N.Y. Times

Old Annie’s long, complicated story, ringing as it does with history and consequence, moral justice and human survival, is a gorgeously textured corner of the Munro provinces.
Gail Caldwell, Boston Globe

Magnificent daring of narrative shifts and leaps. Even at the beginning of her career she almost never wrote a conventional “well-made story“; her tales concern episodes, reversals, revelations…
A.S. Byatt, Globe and Mail
