Her characters are flawed and fully human: their stories draw us in with their quiet depth and surprise us with unexpected turns. And while most are set in her signature territory around Lake Huron, some strike even closer to home: an astonishing suite of four autobiographical tales offers an unprecedented glimpse into Munro's own childhood. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eExalted by her clarity of vision and her unparalleled gift for storytelling, \u003ci\u003eDear Life \u003c\/i\u003eshows how strange, perilous, and extraordinary ordinary life can be.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAlice Munro\u003c\/b\u003e is the author of thirteen collections of stories--including \u003ci\u003eDear Life, Runaway\u003c\/i\u003e, and \u003ci\u003eToo Much Happiness\u003c\/i\u003e--as well as a novel, \u003ci\u003eLives of Girls and Women\u003c\/i\u003e.
