    Content: In Reading Alice Munro, 1973-2013, the world's leading Munro scholar offers a critical overview of Alice Munro and her writing spanning forty years. Beginning with a newly written overarching introduction, featuring directive interleaved commentaries addressing chronology and contexts, ending with encompassing afterword, this collection provides a selection of essays and reviews that reflect their times and tell the story of Munro's emergence and recognition as an internationally acclaimed writer since the 1970s. Acknowledging her beginnings and her persistence as a writer of increasingly exceptional short stories, and just short stories, it treats her career through Thacker's criticism up to her fourteenth collection, Dear Life (2012), and to the 2013 Nobel Prize in Literature. Altogether, this book encompasses the whole trajectory of Munro's critical presence while offering a singularly informed retrospective perspective.

    Content: "The award of the Nobel Prize in Literature to the Canadian writer Alice Munro in 2013 confirmed her position as a master of the short story form. This book explores Munro's work from a full range of critical perspectives, focussing on three of her most popular and important published collections: Hateship, Friendship, Courtship, Loveship, Marriage (2001), Runaway (2004), and her final collection Dear Life (2012). With chapters written by the world's leading critics of Munro's work, the short story form and contemporary Canadian writing, this book explores such themes as love and marriage, sex, fate, gender, and humor in her writings as well as her approaches to narrative form and autobiography. In these three late collections Munro sharply articulates, again and again, the mysteries of being itself."--Bloomsbury Publishing

    Alice Munro's Late Style : Writing is the Final Thing' (2023)

    Edition: 1st ed.
    ISBN: 9781350270411
    Content: Focusing on Alice Munro's last three collections, this book examines the differences between these volumes and the rest of her work to analyse the emergence and the difference of her 'late style'. Alice Munro has effectively reshaped the short story as a form. This book focuses on Munro's art of recursion - an approach that has been evident throughout her career but came to the fore in her last three books, 〈i〉The View from Castle Rock〈/i〉 (2006), 〈i〉Too Much Happiness〈/i〉 (2009) and, especially, 〈i〉Dear Life〈/i〉 (2012). This recursion and return manifest themselves not only in Munro's return to previously published pieces, but also to her discovery and meditations on her Scottish heritage, which can be read as entrance to her own understanding of herself and her life. Its provenance, displayed through archival evidence, is complex yet reveals a writer intent on a precise late style. Munro's final works serve as a coda to both her late style and to her entire career as arguably one of the finest short story writers ever to put pen to paper.
    Note: Preface: "I want to do this with honour, if I possible can" Introduction: Of Late Styles and Alice Munro Chapter One: "〈i〉maybe〈/i〉 I can do something unexpected with it": Imagining 〈i〉The View from Castle Rock〈/i〉 Chapter Two: "it is difficult to decide what works in a book of this sort": The Making of 〈i〉The View from Castle Rock〈/i〉 Chapter Three: "It has some real Munrovian highlights": "The View from Castle Rock" and 〈i〉The View from Castle Rock〈/i〉 Chapter Four: "and then another little story comes along and that solves how life has got to be": The Recursions of 〈i〉Too Much Happiness〈/i〉 Chapter Five: "it seemed as if we had gotten time back, as if there was all the time in the world": The Gathering of Stories Before the "Finale" to 〈i〉Dear Life〈/i〉 Chapter Six: "Simple Truth": "Too Much Happiness" and the "Finale" to 〈i〉Dear Life〈/i〉 Epilogue: "to have got my chance to do it, as well as I could": Alice Munro 〈i〉Finis〈/i〉 Index
