Lives of Girls and Women–Alice Munro

Hello Everyone!

So I just finished reading something different–a literary fiction written by Canadian author, Alice Munro–Lives of Girls and Women

Lives of Girls and Women is the intensely readable, touching, and very funny story of Del Jordan, a young woman who journeys from the carelessness of childhood through an uneasy adolescence in search of love and sexual experience.

As Del dreams of becoming famous, suffers embarrassment about her mother, endures the humiliation of her body’s insistent desires, and tries desperately to fall in love, she grapples with the crises that mark the passage to womanhood.

Paperback: 324 pages

Publisher: Vintage (2015)

Language: English

Genre:-Romance/Literary/Reference

Overall, it was enjoyable reading this book. The story explores the life of a girl named Del Jordan who seems to be an intelligent and curious girl from a rural family, who explores her own life starting from her childhood when she was home, to the middle school to high school. Munro has written very well, using poetic words in the novel and I enjoyed reading the book

Overall I would rate this book as
