Speaking Silence: A study of the Female Image in Alice Munro’s Runaway
The Canadian writer Alice Munro, master of the contemporary short story and also the winner of the 2013 Nobel Prize in Literature, received the attention of a host of researchers, readers and literary critics both in Canada and many other countries worldwide. Throughout her literary career, she has published many famous short story collections. In so many of these collections, Munro introduces the idea of females’ enforced silence in different plots and by various narrative techniques. By writing about a silenced half of the society, Munro resists silence. In her stories of silence, Munro allows silence to start telling stories, stories of resilience, freedom, oppressive males and of change. This paper examines how and why Munro’s characters of Runaway have been silenced, where Munro does expose this horrible silence to the reading public.
