The message here is no matter how old you get, or how bad you want to kill yourself, it’s worth it to keep going because everything will always be dumb and funny.

Alice Munro’s writing is kind of like life. Things happen and you either catch them or don’t. Then they pass you by.

Corrie: ⭐️⭐️⭐️1/2
She’s so good at writing mundane, melancholic drama. Also starting to think there may be some religious themes going over my head.

So Alice Munro’s strength is writing temporal things. Adults remembering things from childhood, people aging, etc.

Leaving Maverley: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Ok this one is really good. It reminded me a lot of synecdoche New York. Sometimes you look at someone, look down at your watch, and look back up and decades have passed all at once.
