Doesn’t everyone love Alice Munro? 

Alice Munro was announced as the winner of the third Man Booker International Prize. The panel made this comment: 

“Alice Munro is mostly known as a short story writer and yet she brings as much depth, wisdom and precision to every short story as most novelists bring to a lifetime of novels. To read Alice Munro is to learn something every time that you never thought of before.”
