Life
Alice Munro was born in Wingham, Ontario in Canada. Her father was a fox and mink farmer and her mother was a teacher. Alice began writing as a teenager. She also studied at the University of Western Ontario and worked as a library clerk. After marrying she moved with her husband to Dundarave, West Vancouver, and moved again in 1963 to Victoria, where the pair opened a bookstore. Since the late 1960s, Alice Munro has dedicated herself to writing. She is married with two daughters from her first marriage.

Work
Alice Munro has dedicated her literary career almost exclusively to the short story genre. She grew up in a small Canadian town; the kind of environment that often provides the backdrops for her stories. These often accommodate the entire epic complexity of the novel in just a few short pages. The underlying themes of her work are often relationship problems and moral conflicts. The relationship between memory and reality is another recurring theme she uses to create tension. With subtle means, she is able to demonstrate the impact that seemingly trivial events can have on a person's life.

生平
爱丽丝-门罗出生在加拿大安大略省的温格姆。她的父亲是一个狐狸和水貂养殖者，母亲是一名教师。爱丽丝在十几岁时开始写作。她还在西安大略大学学习，并担任过图书馆的职员。结婚后，她与丈夫搬到了西温哥华的邓达拉维，1963年再次搬到维多利亚，两人在那里开了一家书店。自20世纪60年代末以来，爱丽丝-门罗一直致力于写作。她已经结婚，有两个女儿，是她第一次婚姻的产物。

作品
爱丽丝-门罗几乎将她的文学生涯完全献给了短篇小说这一类型。她在加拿大的一个小镇上长大；这种环境经常为她的故事提供背景。这些背景往往在短短的几页中就能容纳整个小说的史诗般的复杂性。她作品的基本主题往往是关系问题和道德冲突。记忆和现实之间的关系是她用来制造紧张的另一个反复出现的主题。通过微妙的手段，她能够展示看似微不足道的事件对一个人的生活产生的影响。
