Friends,
From time to time, I bring you views about whatβs happening in the United States from writers and journalists in other countries.
This piece is from a columnist in Canada. Read it and let me know your thoughts.

I was riveted by the New Yorker Alice Munro article and re-read many of the short stories referenced, previously published by the New Yorker. Fascinating to see how Munro fictionalized autobiographical elements when you overlay the publishing timeline with what we know now was happening in her life.
