	Alice Munro Criticism
		Alice Munro's heroine Rose, though said to be a successful and even "famous" Canadian television actress, returns again and again in her imagination to the claustrophobic world of her childhood and girlhood, in "Hanratty, Ontario," as if seeking a meaning—even a deathly meaning—in that otherwise ungiving environment.
		Alice Munro's subject matter is ordinariness—disappointment, the passage of time—but she doesn't bring to her stories what, say, John Updike or Tillie Olsen do: extraordinary language, a m...
		Alice Munro's The Beggar Maid is a history not of endless love but of many loves that ended too soon.

	Books \| Riches of a double life
		Alice Laidlaw was born on July 10, 1931, just outside Wingham, Ontario; the town and its surroundings have been a constant in her work (renamed Jubilee, or perhaps Hanratty).
		Alice and Jim Munro moved to Vancouver, where Jim worked as a manager at Eaton's, a department store, and Alice became a good 50s housewife, on the surface at least, she says.
		The faultlines in the marriage were there from the beginning, and can be traced to an extent through Alice's stories: the Jim figure is from a privileged family, snobbish and class-conscious, right-leaning where she tends left, proper in a way she could not be, sometimes overbearing in a way she could not stand.

	Canadian Literary Archives - Alice Munro Biocritical
		Widely regarded as Canada's best writer of short stories, Alice Munro has consistently produced work in which precise social observation and penetrating psychological insight are complemented by an unerring instinct for exactly the right form of expression.
		Alice Laidlaw was born in Wingham, a small Huron County town, in 1931.
		Alice Munro has described this episode, which reveals her father's stoicism and her mother's determination, in a recently published memoir, "Working for a Living".

	Review: Lives In Microcosm (December 12 - December 18, 1996)
		Alice Munro And William Trevor Are Masters Of The Short Form.
		Mildly surprising then, that two of the finest short story writers in the world, Alice Munro and William Trevor, from Ontario and Ireland, respectively, have so completely shaped the form to fit their talents.
		There is a moment in a story called "Carried Away" near the end of Alice Munro's Selected Stories (Knopf, $30) where a woman meets with the ghost of her beloved, a man she only knew through letters and who died many years before during WWII, in a Toronto bus depot.

	normblog: Writer's choice 92: Geraldine Brennan
		Alice Munro's recent semi-fictionalized memoir, The View from Castle Rock, explained that her Scottish Borders ancestors were noted for 'the refusal to feel any need to turn your life into a story, for other people or yourself'.
		The autobiographical material is subtly spread, but to such effect that Huron County is now known as Alice Munro Country, which will have set some of the ancestors spinning in their graves.
		Her fourth collection, published in the UK as The Beggar Maid, can be read as a novel in which the central character Rose grows up and gets out of West Hanratty, a drab township where the civic motto is probably 'nobody likes a know-it-all'.

	Alice Munro
		In his essay, "Alice Munro: The Short Answer", Alex Keegan writes of his trouble trying to classify Munro's fiction as either novels or short fiction.
		West Hanratty is a long way from the comfortable suburban setting I grew up in.
		The brunt of Keegan's argument suggests that while Munro leaves much out of her stories that would naturally be elaborated upon in a novel, she nonetheless introduces this material in a way which fills the stories with much implied and referred-to material.

		The fraught nature of her relationship with Rose dominates the first section of the book, “Royal Beatings”, which juxtaposes the public scandals of the town with the private violence that Rose endures at the hands of her father.
		Flo's habitual mockery and penchant for imitation, which help her to endure life in Hanratty, are strategies of performance that Rose herself will eventually learn and deploy.
		The next section, “Half a Grapefruit”, also examines class and gender divisions, as Rose recounts for Flo gossip from school, while Flo reciprocates by narrating the story of her own youth, when she was sent away from home to work for a farming family.

		Ray and Alice Brock, who’d taught some exceptional students at a nearby school, bought Trinity Church there in 1964 and made it into a place where their friends and former students could hang out and explore themselves.

	Mail&Guardian: Power to transfigure
		The past itself - the location of psychological destiny - is most often a place, the Canadian hometown or distant rural origin of a present-day narrator.
		Her stories lead back to boarding houses and farms and old department stores, into long-ago jiltings and drownings and suppressed longings that haven't stopped resonating somewhere else.
		I suspect there are dozens of souls, from one end of Canada to the other, glimpsed by Alice Munro over the past half-century, who will never know they are equally elect.

	Alice Munro's Selected Stories reviewed on the official website of writer, Laura Hird
		Canadian prosist Alice Munro is not a particularly bad writer, but she’s not a particularly good nor engaging one either.
		There is also a definitive Alice Munro short story template, and she rarely, it seems, has ever veered too far from it.

	Books of The Times
		Though their works differ greatly in texture, Alice Munro and Jayne Anne Phillips are both artists concerned about projecting an intensely felt vision, a truth.
		Rose and her stepmother, Flo, are products of prewar West Hanratty, Ontario--a cheerless community of foundry workers, idle shopkeepers, childish adults and (less visibly) "casual bootleggers, prostitutes and unsuccessful thieves." But, as the reader soon realizes, Miss Munro is not writing about deprivation and decay in West Hanratty--that is something assumed.
		When she returns to Flo at the end, a chastened survivor, she can see Hanratty with "a tone, a depth, a light" that was not there before--like Miss Munro herself in these stories.

	Heart-Catching \| TIME
		Alice Munro belongs in that rare company; from her naturalistic, classically composed short stories there rises a melodic line that catches at the heart with its freshness.
		Hanratty, for instance, is "such a narrow place, crude without the compensations of the wilderness, cramped without any urban variety or life."
		In Accident, the would-be musician Frances returns to Hanratty, after a spell at a conservatory, to direct a high school glee club and play the organ in a church on Sunday.

	VQR » Some Stories Have to Be Told by Me: A Literary History of Alice Munro
		Sometime in the late 1970s, Alice Munro made a policy of refusing prizes that didn’t specifically honor the quality of her fiction.
		In Hanratty the social structure ran from doctors and dentists and lawyers down to foundry workers and factory workers and draymen; in West Hanratty it ran from factory workers and foundry workers down to larger improvident families of casual bootleggers and prostitutes and unsuccessful thieves.
		It was Anne who tied bows in little Alice’s hair and who read poetry to her and who demanded to have her transferred from the Lower Town elementary school to the better, middle-class one in Wingham proper.

		"Alice Munro's stories are universally admired-if one defines the 'universe' as that part of the world's population that reads good books."
		But Hanratty's question-Who Do You Think You Are?-rings in her ears during her days in Vancouver, mocks her attempts to make her marriage successful, and haunts her new career.
		In these stories of Rose and Flo, Alice Munro explores the universal story of growing up-Rose's struggle to accept herself tells the story of our lives.
