Alice Munro as the master of story telling: “The Love of a Good Woman” | Original Article

ABSTRACT:

here are many people who have commented on Alice Munro's ability to create complicated narratives. Digression or deferral, discontinuity, layering, and so on are only a few examples of how The Love of a Good Woman defies short narrative form. Traditional theories of reading do not adequately explain how good apprenticeship with Munro's short stories may be achieved, according to Ross (2002). When it comes to teaching complicated narratives to students, this study examines Munro's creative skill in The Love of A Good Woman and offers forth a method for easing students' comprehension of difficult narratives. Writing in an online wiki encourages pupils to engage in the process of layering story and building and questioning complicated narrative linkages, it is said. In turn, this creative activity may aid their comprehension of short stories like Munro's.
