“She develops neither plot nor character. She offers neither a social, ethical or philosophical message, nor a set of ready-made solutions or suggestions… What is essential in the author’s work is not the vision of the world it presents, but the incisive grasp of the human dance, of its choreography. It is the process of demystification that is at work”Merler, Grazia. Mavis Gallant: Narrative Patterns and Devices
