1.0

Brilliant writer, who brings to life the characters and vistas that Canadians new and old, are very familiar with.  

Her writing and story telling abilities deserve 5 Stars.

However, my rating is the result of my subjective and prejudiced view of Alice Munro as a human and mother, who, for her own security and benefit, allowed her own daughter's abuse to continue for years when she could have ended it.  Wonderful author, not a good mother.
