Hey Misty!
THIS is an interesting question:
do you consider Lives of Girls and Women a
>novel, or a collection of connected short stories?

My initial (probably glib) response is to say "Who cares?" Almost any Alice
Munro short story contains as much emotional data as most novels.
Munro herself (if this is relevant) considers herself incapable of "long
fictions"....
I think she's a GREAT writer.
Cheers,
Paul
