Dear Life by Alice Munroe

We met on Monday 20^th Jan 2014 at The Drum.  We discussed ‘Dear Life’ by Alice Munroe.  This was a collection of beautifully written short stories set in Canada.  

We entered the vast landscapes of Canadian mountains and lakes. We also entered the lives of various interesting characters.  Our discussion was enhanced more as we had not all read the same stories. 

We agreed that we liked Monroe’s brevity of language.  

We are looking forward to another year of reading and discussion.  

Our next meeting is on Monday 25^th Feb 2014.  We have decided to read an old classic ‘A Tale of Two  Cities’ by Charles Dickens.
