If she was right in a room of one's own, why haven't we seen the emergence of a celebrated female novelist of serious literature? It's been over a year since women's enrollment in college surpassed that of men's?

I don't see her spoken of often on this board, but I think Alice Munro is a really captivating author with very beautiful but simple short stories. She doesn't always astound me with her style, but there's often a very lovely atmosphere and poignancy to her stories.
