On the memorial tribute to Alice Munro, collected by

I arrived in Toronto in 1979 as a new immigrant from Europe and was still there when the book “The Moons of Jupiter” was published in 1982. The one short story in the book, from which the book got its title, took place in Toronto. Canada (and North America by extension) looked strange to me at that time. My European “facts” did not fit the North American facts. The story itself is about the changing nature of facts.
