Too Much Happiness by Alice Munro
3.0
Mixed bag
Sometimes I feel like I must not get short stories. I see the same patterns in Munros stories: lots of back story, fine detail, awkward ending. My favorite in this collection was the one about Marlene and Charlene, because of the shocking way it ended-- but most of these, I thought were too long, too deep and in in unsatisfying.
