The four co-authors of Reading Alice Munro’s Breakthrough Books: A Suite in Four Voices [...] have all been reading Munro for several decades and keep coming back to her short fiction, finding more to it with each re-reading. As a quartet, the image of the musical suite in the subtitle points at a combination of diversity and complementariness among them, in a composition meant to reveal and educate.
