Alice Munro by emma ugarelli
In tribute to Alice Ann Munro, the celebrated Canadian short story writer who won the Nobel Prize in Literature in 2013 and passed away on May 13th this year, we reflect on her profound understanding of human experience. As Munro wrote, "What she wants to do if she can get the time to do it, is not so much to live in the past as to open it up and get one good look at it." This quote suggests that the character's desire is not to dwell in or change the past, but rather to examine and understand it more clearly. The emphasis is on gaining insight and perspective rather than attempting to alter past events or relive them. Munro's work often delves into the depths of memory and personal history, offering readers a chance to explore the intricacies of life through her masterful storytelling. #writers #writersofinstagram #authors
