Book by Alice Munro
The Progress of Love is a book of short stories by Alice Munro , published by McClelland and Stewart in 1986 . It won the 1986 Governor General's Award for English Fiction, her third win of that award.[ 1]
The book was originally contracted to Macmillan of Canada , the publisher of Munro's previous two books.[ 2] However, when editor Douglas Gibson left the company to join McClelland and Stewart, Munro returned the advance that Macmillan had already paid her, so that she could continue working with Gibson at the new company rather than rebuilding a new relationship with a different editor.[ 2] The book ultimately became the first title ever released under M&S's new Douglas Gibson Books imprint.[ 2]
