Andrea Robin Skinner, a daughter of the Canadian Nobel laureate Alice Munro, said that her stepfather sexually abused her as a child — and that her mother knew about it, and chose to stay with him anyway. Skinner, who is now an adult, detailed these accusations in an essay in the Toronto Star on Sunday. According to a separate article in the Toronto Star, Skinner went to the Ontario police, and in 2005, her stepfather, Gerald Fremlin, was charged with indecent assault against her. Because of her mother’s fame, Skinner wrote, “the silence continued.” Munro died on May 13 at 92. “What I wanted was some record of the truth, some public proof that I hadn’t deserved what had happened to me,” Skinner wrote of going to the police in 2005, about 30 years after the abuse began.
