Mavis Gallant is undoubtedly one of the best Canadian writers, perfecting her craft in the form of her exquisite short stories. The Moslem Wife and Other Stories is a collection of 11 of her stories, selected and with an afterword by Mordecai Richler. There is the precise portrait of a minor Canadian diplomat in The Ice Wagon Going Down the Street, a young German soldier's return to his ravaged home in The Latehomecomer, and two English hotel-keepers on the Riviera in The Moslem Wife. This collection showcases her incisive observations of human nature.
