Sheila Munro is the daughter of one of the worlds most admired fiction writers: Alice Munro, threetime winner of Canadas prestigious Governor Generals Award. In Lives of Mothers and Daughters, she reveals what it was like to grow up with a mother of such tremendous renown. At the core of the book lies a loving and intimate biography of Alice, presented as only a daughter can. Sheila traces the story back to her ancestors, who left Scotland in the early 19th century, before telling of Alices birth in 1931, her youth growing up on an Ontario farm, and her two marriages, and two grandchildrenSheilas own children.Sheila has a tale to tell thats her own as well, involving her writerly aspirations and her efforts to forge a unique path while following in her mothers footsteps. And so, from her perspective as both an author and a mother, Sheila writes frankly about her mother and her mothers writing. The legions of devoted Alice Munro fans will glimpse reallife settings, situations and characters that have worked their way into her fiction as Sheila offers a behindthescenes tour (replete with Munro family snapshots) of the inspirations for the tales Munro fans know and love.
