The Complete Short Stories by Muriel Spark
Muriel Spark is 'a wholly original presence in modern literature' (Andrew Motion). This collection, which contains all her published short stories together with some previously unpublished work, amply displays Muriel Spark's extraordinary talent; her cool, biting humour and unique vision of human nature. Ghosts and judges, priests, murder and French chateaux: all the trademark Spark obsessions are here, and much more besides.
Muriel Spark's many novels include Memento mori, The Girls of Slender Means and The Prime of Miss Jean Brodie (adapted for film and theatre). She was elected C. Litt in 1992 and awarded the DBE in 1993. She has received many awards, including the James Tait Black Memorial Prize, the FNAC Prix Etranger, the Saltire Prize, the Ingersoll T. S. Eliot Award and the David Cohen British Literature Prize in recognition of a lifetime's literary achievement.
