SHIELDS STORIES (THE)

The Shields Stories is a dramatic anthology based on short stories by Carol Shields. A harp falls from the sky. The government decides to tax sunlight. A widow tries to find a new life selling kitchenware in a mall. The Shields Stories weaves together the rich and random details of every day into six half-hour dramatic episodes. Shields "marries a wide diversity of elements, mythical and modern, ironic and moving, exhilarating and melancholy...," declares the Times Literary Supplement.
