Books like Queenie

I’m not sure why this single long ‘short story’ was published separately as a tiny book, but it meant that as I read it I paid it far more attention than if it had been one of a collection and it will stay with me for some time.It’s quite a challenge to find Alice Munro talking about her work, and the nearest I got to something that connected for me on Queenie was her saying that she wanted her stories to move and disturb her readers. And she writes about women, women and men, sex and power in relationships and small communities. Nothing specifically about this story, but tools to help unpack its complexity.
