Too Much Happiness by Alice Munro

4.0

More beauty from Munro. It's getting hard for me to review her writing - to distinguish a four star from a five. She's just a brilliant writer.

There are ten stories in this collection. Each is vastly different; from "Too Much Happiness" about the last days of Russian author and mathematician Sofia Kovalevskaya to the haunting story of young co-ed in her first year of college "Wenlock Edge", Munro's women move through life with steam - taking it as it comes and, somehow, surviving, learning, and growing. Something I suppose we all hope to do: to take each day - learn and grow - and find pot at the end of the rainbow that holds too much happiness.

Another brilliant collection.
