太多幸福 (孟若短篇小說集, 1)

The stories feel interconnected yet diverse in tone and theme. I'm curious whether the structure was planned from the start or evolved as she wrote.

Many of the stories explore moments of loss or reflection. I wonder if this mood was intentional to mirror the subtleties of everyday life.

The settings felt so authentic and lived-in, almost like characters themselves. I'm interested in whether Munro drew from personal experience or research.
