After a half-month copyright dispute among business siblings, Yilin Press announced last Thursday that it will publish a collection of works by Alice Munro, this year's winner of the Nobel Prize in literature.

The Canadian writer became a publisher's dream after the prize was unveiled. Jiangsu People's Publishing Co quickly announced it would start selling Munro's books in October. The company said it had a contract with the copyright agent for six of her books that is valid until 2014.

But at the same time, Yilin Press, which shares the same parent company with Jiangsu People's Publishing, also announced plans to publish the works.
