Abstract:
Canadian author Alice Munro is known as the “master of contemporary the short story”
(Wikipedia). She is the creator of contemporary short stories and has changed the definition of
short story. Known as “Canadian Chekhov” Munro won many literary awards including the
Nobel Prize in Literature in 2013.She won Canada’s Governor General’s award thrice in her life
and received Man Booker Prize in 2009.Despite all these literary accolades her stories are not
widely read, at least in Bangladesh. Therefore, I felt an urge to translate one of her stories in
Bengali for Bangladeshi readers while I was reading the stories of Alice Munro.
