This is the book about one of the world’s great authors, Alice Munro, which shows how her life and her stories intertwine. For almost thirty years Robert Thacker has been researching this book, steeping himself in Alice Munro’s life and work, working with her co-operation to make it complete. The result is a feast of information for Alice Munro’s admirers everywhere. By following “the parallel tracks” of Alice Munro’s life and Alice Munro’s texts, he gives a thorough and revealing account of both her life and work. “There is always a starting point in reality,” she once said of her stories, and this book reveals just how often her stories spring from her life. The book is chronological, starting with her pioneer ancestors, but with special attention paid to her parents and to her early days growing up poor in Wingham. Then all of her life stages—the marriage to Jim Munro, the move to Vancouver, then to Victoria to start the bookstore, the three daughters, the divorce, the return to Huron County, and the new life with Gerry Fremlin—leading to the triumphs as, story by story, book by book, she gains fame around the world, until rumours of a Nobel Prize circulate . . .

Alice Munro was born in 1931 in Wingham, Ontario. After attending the University of Western Ontario, she moved to the west coast. She now lives in Clinton, Ontario. Her short stories have been read on the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation and published in many anthologies. She publishes in a variety of Canadian and American magazines, including regular contributions to the New Yorker. This highly gifted writer won the Governor General's Award for her 1968 collection of short stories Dance of the Happy Shades. In 1972, her Lives of Girls and Women was winner of the Canadian Booksellers Association International Book Year Award, and a section of this novel was produced in the CBC Performance series. In 1977, she was the first Canadian to be awarded the Canada-Australia Literary Prize. Her other publications include Something I've Been Meaning to Tell You (1974) and Who Do You Think You Are? (1978), the latter winning for Munro her second Governor General's Award.
