Literary critics have argued over the status of women in the world and their self-development of their literary and cultural position in literary works. Women's oppression, self-complication, and self-recognition are worldly studied. In this respect, this thesis aims at exploring how Alice Munro has violated the established norms of writing in order to give women the chance to speak. It can be classified as a postcolonial study because Munro tries to deconstruct the centre: it is both the metropolitan and patriarchy. Moreover, she has used postmodernist techniques in order to distort both the west and men. This topic has been chosen for many reasons. First, Munro is a staunch feminist whose oeuvre gives due respect to women's problems. Theme of woman/country recurs in most of her works; this accentuates that Canada cannot get its full independence without emancipating women from patriarchal restrictions, and the constraints of society.
