Alice Munro

[Tom Beshear]

Booksellers in the English speaking world have to be thrilled with this Nobel. Munro's work is very reader friendly -- I mean that in the best way; I'm not being condescending. The pleasures of her prose and her plots are right up front; there are deeper layers to be explored, but casual readers can get plenty out of her work without feeling like they're working a Rubik's cube.

  I did not think it would happen. 
   
  Anyway, for those interested, the paperback inventory of all her work is out at wholesalers and the publisher---
  landing now at bookstores everywhere....

  Reprints scheduled and being scheduled---including hardcover reprints for many.

  I've been predicting this for a couple of years.  Excellent choice.
