- Description
- This book is a collection of essays on the writing of the Canadian short story writer and Nobel laureate Alice Munro (1931). The volume covers the entirety of Munro’s career, from the first stories she published in the early 1950s to her final books. It offers a range of approaches and interpretive strategies, and provides many new perspectives, reconsidered positions and analyses that will enhance the reading, teaching, and appreciation of Munro’s work. .Following the editors’ introduction—which surveys Munro’s recurrent themes, explains the design of the book, and summarizes each contribution—Munro biographer Robert Thacker contributes a substantial bio-critical introduction to her career. The book is then divided into three sections, focusing on Munro’s characteristic forms, themes, and most notable literary effects.
