The slow-burning fuse that is an Alice Munro story frequently hides, then exposes, something violent, shameful, or sensational. Down-and-out characters struggling on the edges, psychopathic killers, vindictive children or vengeful old people, abused women, passionately self-abnegating lovers, irresponsible adulterers, horrible acts of cruelty, startlingly show up inside these domestic, realistic narratives.

Prior to last fall’s book award season, anticipation was high for a potential showdown between two of Canada’s most-celebrated authors, Alice Munro and Margaret Atwood. As it turned out, none of the country’s three major prizes featured both writers as finalists.
