Swamp angel / Ethel Wilson ; afterword by George Bowering. by Wilson, Ethel, 1888-1980. McClelland and Stewart, 2008, c1954. Call #: FICTION WIL Subjects Remarried people -- Fiction.   Fishing lodges -- Fiction.   Jealousy -- Fiction.   Compassion -- Fiction.   British Columbia -- Fiction. Series New Canadian library. no. 29. ISBN:  9780771094781 (trade pbk.) Description:  229 p. ; 20 cm. Summary:  "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 Maggie's new surroundings is soon disturbed by the irrational jealousy of the lodge-keeper's 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 Maggie's ambiguous talisman and the novel's symbolic core. Ethel Wilson's best-loved novel, 'Swamp Angel' first appeared in 1954. It remains an astute and powerful study of one woman's integrity and of the redemptive power of compassion."--Publisher.
