A woman on the cusp of marriage prepares to leave behind old certainties for a better life.
Read by Laurel Lefkow.

Alice Munro’s short stories, often set in small town Canada, weave together fiction and autobiography to explore the complexities of human life. The author, who died in May, was awarded the Nobel Prize in Literature in 2013.

In β€œThe Ticket”, a woman engaged to a man from a wealthier class pores over childhood memories and family lore in an attempt to prepare for married life.
