new read: Mavis Gallant "Home Truths"

"home truths" by mavis gallant
I now own three books of Mavis Gallant's short stories, and I'm finally getting around to cracking one of them open. She's a Canadian author who writes (in what I've read so far) about growing up in Canada, in a way that reminds me of Alice Munro. Maybe, due to Gallant's being older than Munro, I should say that Munro reminds me of Gallant. In any case, it's good stuff.
