In all the many lists of writers in English I have read on this website illustrating differing times, genders,nationalities and so forth, I have never noticed the name Mavis Gallant. When I noticed it I googled her. And she appears to be very well regarded and highly prized.
Why is she so unfamiliar? Or is it just me? I remember that JBI made some remarks about the quality of Canadian women writers recently. I don't think she was mentioned.
