Title: The Stone Angel by Margaret Laurence
“The Stone Angel, published in 1964, takes place in the fictitious town of Manawaka, Manitoba. In parallel narratives in the past and the present-day (1960s), the book tells the story of Hagar Currie Shipley. In the present, 90-year-old Hagar struggles against being put in a nursing home, which she sees as a symbol of death. This narrative alternates with Hagar looking back at her life.”
