When I woke up this morning to learn that short-story writer Alice Munro had won the Nobel Prize for Literature, I felt as happy as a Canadian. Munro is the writer I have loved the most and loved the longest.
Munro is only the 13th woman to win the Nobel Prize for Literature, and she is a woman who writes—well, I can’t bring myself to say“wrote”, despite her announcement this summer that her recent collection, Dear Life, would be her last. Anyway, she is a woman who writes about women and their concerns: love, security, jealousy, ambition, husbands, aging, housework, boredom, regret, and children. The younger women in her older stories are often poor, or very nearly so; the older women in her later stories are sometimes successful, or married to successful men. She returns so often to the same territory in rural Ontario that her work has been called“Southern Ontario Gothic. ”But the fact that she writes about one particular place belies(掩饰)the diversity(多样性)of her characters’ personalities and desires: To know one girl in 20th-century rural Ontario is not to know them all.
