Andrea Robin Skinner, the youngest daughter of Nobel Prize-winning Canadian author Alice Munro, has said her stepfather sexually abused her and that her mother chose to support her husband instead of her child. Skinner said she opted to tell her story in a first-person essay in the Toronto Star to give Canadians a more nuanced picture of Munro.

Support is available for anyone who has experienced sexual violence. You can access crisis lines and local support services through this Government of Canada website (https://bit.ly/3D1rUmb) or the Ending Violence Association of Canada database (https://bit.ly/3ilpp67). If you’re in immediate danger or fear for your safety or that of others around you, please call 911.
