An annotated bibliography should include a summary of
the work, and may also contain an evaluation and analysis.
The annotation runs together with the citation, as follows:
Munro,
Alice. The Progress of Love. New York: Penguin, 1995. A collection of
short stories loosely connected by themes of love found and lost. Many of the
stories are set in the author's native Canada, and contain glimpses of the
landscape and weather typical of that land. Munro has won several national and
commonwealth awards for her writing; this book includes several of her best
stories.
