Her works include Who Do You Think You Are ? ( 1978 ) , The Moons of Jupiter ( 1982 ) , Runaway (2004) , The View from Castle Rock ( 2006 ) and Too Much Happiness (2009) . Her most recent collection is Dear Life (2012) .Bom on July 10 ,1931 in Wingham,Ontario,Ms Munro grew up in the countryside. At just 11 years old,she decided she wanted to be a writer,and was never uncertain about her career choice. U?I think maybe I would be successful in doing this because I didn't have any other talents,n she once said in an interview. ?Her focus on the activity of writing means she is not the kind of writer who is interested in book-signing events or other publicity work.
