A review by melineegout
Runaway by Alice Munro

4.0

This was an enjoyable short story collection. They all focused on women’s lives and the hard choices they sometimes have to make. Munro’s style is beautiful and represents perfectly the spectrum of women’s emotions and challenges.The stories were quite entertaining and their length allowed the reader to appreciate the plots and characters. My favorite thing about this book was that three of the stories (Chance, Soon and Silence) presented the same character, Juliet, at different stages of her life. However, my favorite story was Tricks which was suspenseful and had a great ending. I will definitely try to read more of his Alice Munro’ s short stories.
