Something had happened there. In life you have a few places, or perhaps one, where something happened, and then there are all the other places.
In Alice Munro's work "Too Much Happiness," a significant event or realization often occurs in specific locations that hold a deeper meaning for individuals. These places become etched in memory, representing pivotal moments in life, while others fade into insignificance. Such locations serve as anchors for personal experiences and transformations.
The recognition of these meaningful spaces emphasizes how certain incidents can shape a person's identity and perspective. The contrast between profound moments and the mundane highlights the importance of reflecting on where and how these life-changing experiences unfold.
