The third of CSA Word's popular women's short story collections

CSA Word's collections of 'stories by or about women', narrated by such excellent readers as Rosalind Ayres, Juliet Stevenson and Harriet Walters are consistently fascinating – The Times

Nine unabridged works by time-honoured female and male writers exploring what love, family, and marriage mean. This collection brings together stories by Edith Wharton, Katherine Mansfield, Wilkie Collins and Marcel Proust, with forays into the supernatural and the comedic by Sabine Baring-Gould and Saki. Be them funny or moving, all stories are beautifully read by Harriet Walter (Atonement, Netflix's The Crown), Juliet Stevenson (Bend it Like Beckham, The Enfield Haunting), Barbara Leigh-Hunt (Pride and Prejudice, Billy Elliot) and Rosalind Ayres (Titanic, Outnumbered).
