In the past 35 years, she has produced numerous short stories that are read in and outside of Canada, often appearing in such prestigious magazines as The New Yorker and The Atlantic Monthly. Today she is still active in her writing career.Like her many other stories, the subject of the story “Nettles” is about the problem of a middle-aged woman—the passions, confusions and dilemmas that any woman in a modern society might be confronted with, regardless of race, color or nationality.

• Her stories are not autobiographical, but she does claim an “emotional reality” for her characters that are drawn from her own life. Munro’s life experiences of growing up in relatively poor provincial southwestern Ontario town during the depression, going through the rebelliousness and idealism of adolescence, discovering sex, leaving home, falling in love, getting married, having children, getting divorced, and getting along in a variety of complicated relationships, all inform the fiction she creates.
