Canadian writer Alice Munro, whose short stories have been beloved for the past six decades, has died at 92.
Her earthy humour and ability to extend sympathy to every character made her a household name, and made her birthplace of Wingham, Ontario, a place of literary pilgrimage.
She won the Nobel Prize in 2013, the only Canadian to ever win for literature, and the Giller Prize twice, then disqualified herself from the running in 2009 to make way for younger writers.
Ms. Munro leaves her daughters Sheila, Jenny and Andrea.

American street artist Brian Donnelly, who works under the moniker KAWS, has become arguably the most popular contemporary artist of his generation. But over the past 25 years, he’s also become one of the most critically maligned.
With his collection of cartoon figures rendered with bulging foreheads and crossed out eyes, Donnelly has defied art world conventions, attracting the attention of stars and fashion brands along the way.
This week, the Art Gallery of Ontario launched KAWS: FAMILY, an exhibition of his work. The exhibition is an undeniable validation for Donnelly after years of establishment rejection, but it’s also a new way to be exposed to audiences beyond the hypebeasts that built his following on social media. For the AGO, it’s a chance to learn more about its rapidly shifting audience. Read more on the new exhibition in our link in bio.

In the 1950s and early 60s, thousands of Inuit were sent to southern hospitals to be treated for tuberculosis. By In 1956, one in seven Inuit were living in these sanatoriums. They were sent far from home, lost their native language, and their families were oftentimes not even sure if they were still alive. If someone did die while in a hospital, they were buried there.
Now, the Nanilavut project is dedicated to finding the graves of lost Inuit TB patients. As of this summer, they identified 27 graves of Inuit whose families knew they had died in the south, but who didn’t know where they were buried. This summer, a group of survivors made a trip back to the Mountain Sanatorium in Hamilton, where they were sent decades ago. It became a stop on their healing journey. Read more about their stories at the link in our bio.

Canada is a partner on the mission, and will receive a portion of the sample, marking the first time Canada will own a sample gathered directly from a celestial body to study and curate as a national asset.
Swipe through to find out how the mission recovered these valuable asteroid samples, and how it plans to safely return to Earth.

The clock ticks at a whole other rhythm on days when I work from home, writes Globe Journalist Dave McGinn.
Talk to most people who are fortunate enough to work from home and two things are clear: They really, really enjoy it, and they’re worried the privilege will be yanked away by employers who want them visible at all times. But the reason those employees see remote work as such a benefit may surprise a lot of those bosses. It’s not about slacking off, it’s about autonomy.
@brigidschulte , author of Overwhelmed: Work, Love, and Play When No One Has the Time, calls it “schedule control.”
