Profiling one of the world's finest contemporary short story writers, this biography charts Alice Munro's development as both a wife and mother and a serious writer. Exploring her ability to tantalize readers, the compelling profile details her struggle to balance the demands of her "double life."
Canadian-born Alice Munro has established herself as one of the world's finest contemporary short story-writers. Since the publication of her first collection, Dance of the Happy Shades in 1968, she has tantalized a steadily expanding readership with her ability to present, "ordinary life so that it appears luminous, invested with a kind of magic." In Alice Munro: A Double Life, the first full-length biography of Munro, Ross charts the development of Munro as a wife/mother and serious writer, and her struggle to balance the demands of this "double life."
