«Chi ti credi di essere?» is Alice Munro's short story collection, published by Einaudi in hardback (267 pages, in Italian).
Ten stories in chronological order trace Rose's life, from her childhood in the village of West Hanratty to her maturity, through her complex relationship with her stepmother Flo. The tension between loyalty to that provincial world and the desire to escape it runs through her upbringing, studies, love, and family.
Work originally published in 1978 as The Beggar Maid, winner of the Governor General's Literary Award. This Italian edition, translated by Susanna Basso, belongs to the Supercoralli collection.
