Swamp Angel

When Maggie Lloyd walks out on her second husband, she leaves Vancouver behind to find a fresh start at a fishing lodge in the B.C. interior. As she begins to rebuild her life and her self-esteem, she finds herself drawn to others who also need to heal deep wounds. Ethel Wilson's perceptive novel is a quiet celebration of friendship and compassion, and is full of richly drawn characters.

For her contribution to Canadian literature, Wilson was presented with the Canada Council Medal in 1961 and the Lorne Pierce Medal of the Royal Society of Canada in 1964.
