3 copies left

Walking out on a demoralizing second marriage, Maggie Lloyd leaves Vancouver to work at a fishing lodge in the interior of British Columbia. But the serenity of Maggies new surroundings is soon disturbed by the irrational jealousy of the lodge-keepers wife. Restoring her own broken spirit, Maggie must also become a healer to others. In this, she is supported by her eccentric friend, Nell Severance, whose pearl-handled revolver – the Swamp Angel – becomes Maggies ambiguous talisman and the novels symbolic core. Ethel Wilsons best-loved novel, Swamp Angel first appeared in 1954. It remains an astute and powerful study of one womans integrity and of the redemptive power of compassion.
