Alice Munro鈥檚 short stories, often set in small-town Canada, weave together fiction and autobiography to explore the complexities of human life. The author, who died in May, was awarded the Nobel Prize in Literature in 2013.

In 鈥淭he Hired Girl鈥�, a summer spent working as the live-in help for a wealthy family opens a young woman鈥檚 eyes to previously unencountered class distinctions.
