Alice Ann Munro, née Laidlaw (born 10 July 1931) is a Canadian short-story writer and three-time winner of Canada's Governor General's Award for fiction. Widely considered "the finest living short story writer," her stories focus on human relationships looked at through the lens of daily life. While most of Munro’s fiction is set in Southwestern Ontario, her reputation as a short-story writer is international. Her "accessible, moving stories" explore human complexities in a seemingly effortless style. Munro's writing has established her as "one of our greatest contemporary writers of fiction," or, as Cynthia Ozick put it, "our Chekhov."
In the thirteen stories in her remarkable second collection, Alice Munro demonstrates the precise observation, straightforward prose style, and masterful technique that led no less a critic than John Updike to compare her to Chekhov. The sisters, mothers and daughters, aunts, grandmothers, and friends in these stories shimmer with hope and love, anger and reconciliation, as they contend with their histories and their present, and what they can see of the future.

1. 遇见丈夫那个,小时候在《看电影》上看到过类似的一个等待最后与邮递员在一起的故事。2. material 男人那些“天生”的自在,女人境遇里的那些不公平unhappy,不是坏人的男人也无法感知,并“left me alone to get over it”。3. the ottawa valley,会再看几遍,女作家的母女的故事都好丰富。
评分爱丽丝门罗写的故事很有味道。
评分值得再读
评分I appreciated her skill, but wasn't wowed by the work. I kept reading out of a sense of duty to finishit. Sorry, I'm just not that into her.
评分Favorite essays: “Material”, “How I Met My Husband”, “Walking on Water” “Spanish Lady”
