Alice Munro recommends
The Lost Salt Gift of Blood (1976)
Alistair MacLeod
"It is hard to think of anyone who casts a spell the way Alistair MacLeod can."
Duet for Three (1985)
Joan Barfoot
"In Duet for Three, Joan Barfoot's charting of family life is unsparing, painful, witty, and surprising. The cumulative effect is remarkably powerful."
Graven Images (1993)
Audrey Thomas
"An exuberant, horrific excavation of a family's life and history... wild, witty."
Vanishing and Other Stories (2009)
Deborah Willis
"The emotional range and depth of these stories, the clarity and deftness, is astonishing."
Saints and Sinners (2011)
Edna O'Brien
"Edna O'Brien writes the most beautiful, aching stories of any writer, anywhere."
Cadillac Cathedral (2014)
Jack Hodgins
"Jack Hodgins' stories do one of the best things fiction can do-they reveal the extra dimension of the real place, they light up crazy necessities of real life."
