The characters' struggles with class and identity feel so authentic. Did anyone else find themselves reflecting on how social status influences personal choices?

The interconnected stories created a layered view of their lives. I wonder if Munro planned this interconnectedness from the start or if it evolved during writing.

Many stories left me pondering whether the characters' dreams were ever fully attainable. Was this feeling intentional to evoke a sense of realism?
