- Alice Ann Munro (/mənˈroʊ/; née Laidlaw /ˈleɪdlɔː/; 10 July 1931 - 13 May 2024) was a Canadian short story writer who won the Nobel Prize in Literature in 2013. Munro's work has been described as revolutionizing the architecture of the short story, especially in its tendency to move forward and backward in time,[1] and with integrated short fiction cycles, in which she has displayed "inarguable virtuosity" ( (Wikipedia, seen May 15 2024) )
