Is she /ourgal/? No man post 1970 would ever get away with writing women the way she does

Is the bar for female writers that fricking low? Sad!
>t. has never read her, likely doesnt know who she even is
Not as good (Also likely a man under a pseudonym)
Your suggesting she is actually a man proves you know she is better or have never read her (or both), you can not attack her work so attack her in the limpest way possible.
No. I mean she literally was likely a front for one of her journalist buds wjo couldnt get published under his own name. Her books are not that interesting and fell out of print for decades. As far as journalist turned novelist they are second rate Wolfe and third rate Thompson
Munro has never been out of print
What do your conspiracy theories and trivia have to do with the quality of the work?
Adler is still alive.
Name?
Imagine being this new
I've been on IQfy for 8 years. I've never heard of this woman either or saw her picture before.
I listened to an interview of hers from about five years ago and she makes frequent reference to the fact that she embraces her femininity and has an adoration for womanhood, opinions which would definitiely render her cancellable if she wasn't 90 years old and an absolute legend.
Yes. You're what's known as an illiterate newbie. If you don't know who Alice Munro is, who what she does, you don't belong here. Try IQfy. It'll be more your speed.
>t. Just found just about her because of norm mcdonald tweets
>Imagine being this new
it's not a question of being "new", there's like 4 billion women on the planet, just because you are obsessed with this one doesn't mean we all are.
>muh IQfy posting conventions
yeah, they're stupid. you people spend more time and energy *not giving the name than if you just typed it out.
You seem really impressed with anyone who doesn't talk and act like an insane queer. I'm not, it's called being normal. Munro is a good author though.
Im impressed with anyone who doesnt respect womeme tbqh
>queers
>respecting women
The best part about homosexuality authors are their ruthless, unwavering, catty portrayals of heterosexual relationships
>not knowing some random b***h known as "Alice Munro makes you illiterate
The sheer homosexualry here is astonishing. This b***h is irrelevant. There are essential authors, but this woman isn't worthy to lick their boots.
Jane Gaskell is still alive
Frick off back to twatter and truelit, loser
What's her best short story? I'll read it.
Her most heralded is probably the Bear Came Over the Mountain
My personal favourites are Wilderness Station & the Found Boat
>another roastie thread
I don't read women writers. I don't care about women writers. Simple as.
OP, where should I start with her? Can you rank her short-story collections?
Connie Willis is better
