Cinta. Rasa bersalah. Gairah. Kehilangan. Aib. Keterasingan. Perkara keseharian yang begitu dekat, tapi di tangan Munro, kehidupan paling sederhana sekalipun selalu berhasil diramu menjadi kisah yang memikat. Empat cerita penutup yang disebut Munro "terasa autobiografis" akan membawa kita menilik kilasan masa kecil Munro; sesuatu yang belum pernah diceritakan Munro sebelumnya. Dengan sentuhan khas Munro, cerita-cerita ini menarik kita masuk begitu dalam kekehidupan karakter-karakternya dan mengejutkan kita dengan perubahan yang tak terkira. Dipuji sebagai penulis dengan kejernihan visi dan kemampuan bercerita yang tak tertandingi, melaluiDear Life, Munro menunjukkan betapa sebuah kehidupan biasa bisa menjadi begitu aneh, berbahaya, dan tak terduga.

The book offers a new approach to the study of Alice Munro's fiction. Its innovative quality consists in juxtaposing a variety of literary analyses of selected stories with two other ways of looking at her fiction: the perspectives of film adaptation and of pedagogy. The book is divided into three parts which mirror the key words in the title: understanding, adapting and teaching. Part One consists of four articles on various aspects of Munro's short fiction from a literary perspective. Part Two - four essays - addresses editing and film adaptations of Munro's stories (both television and feature films). Part Three consists of an essay on didactic aspects of Munro's fiction and of several interviews with teachers of Canadian literature who have included stories by Munro in their syllabi.

The Goshenhoppen registers of baptisms, marriages, and deaths are the sacramental records of the Catholic mission at Goshenhoppen, now Bally, in Washington Township, Berks County, Pennsylvania. Beginning in 1741, the year the mission was founded, and extending, with some gaps, to 1819, these include sacraments administered at Goshenhoppen and outlying missions in southeastern Pennsylvania, particularly in the counties of Berks, Bucks, Northampton, Montgomery, Lehigh, and Lebanon, an area containing much of the early Germanic population of the state. Goshenhoppen's registers are believed to be not only the oldest extant Catholic church registers in Pennsylvania, but the oldest in existence of the original thirteen colonies Hence their overriding importance in Pennsylvania-German history and genealogy and the reason for their original publication, between 1886 and 1950, in the Records of the American Catholic Historical Society of Philadelphia. Taken as a whole, the Goshenhoppen registers contain entries relating to about 4,000 baptisms, marriages, and deaths, with references to about 15,000 individuals. Added to this work for the first time is a complete name index.
