#25: A View from Castle Rock by Alice Munro
Munro’s last short story collection is her most personal, and the way she has spun her own life and the history of her ancestors into fascinating, complex short stories is the definition of going out on a high note (Munro, though still alive and seemingly healthy, has decided not to put out any more original collections, saying that she’s run out of things to write about)—for more great Munro, check out Hateship, Friendship, Courtship, Loveship, Marriage.
