Editorial Reviews

From AudioFile

This arresting story, with its powerful opening, is beautifully read by a talented cast, sensitively led by Janet Wright as the heroine. At the end of her long life, Hagar Shipley looks back at the choices she made in her battle for personal independence. The cast's fine interpretation of each character pulls the listener into a Canadian family saga both intriguing and disturbing. The sightless stone angel, which overlooks the Canadian town and graces the production's CD jacket, serves as an apt metaphor for a melancholy story. Listeners may question some of Hagar's decisions and the prices she pays for them but will savor this poignant listening experience.

From 500 Great Books by Women; review by Sonja Larsen

The Stone Angel is a compelling journey seen through the eyes of a woman nearing the end of her life. At ninety, Hagar Shipley speaks movingly of the perils of growing old and reflects with bitterness, humor, and a painful awareness of her own frailties on the life she has led. From her childhood as the daughter of a respected merchant, to her rebellious marriage, Hagar has fought a long and sometimes misguided battle for independence and respect. In the course of examining and trying to understand the shape her life has taken, her divided feelings about her husband, her passionate attachment to one son and her neglect of another, she is sometimes regretful, but rarely penitent. Asking forgiveness from neither God nor those around her, she must still wrestle with her own nature: "Pride was my wilderness, and the demon that led me there was fear." She has been afraid of being unrespectable, afraid of needing too much, afraid of giving too much, and her pride is both disturbing and inspiring. The Stone Angel is an excellent example of the realism and compassion present in all of Margaret Laurence's writing.

一開始覺得很無聊,但讀下去覺得不錯

評分

之前因為學校要求而去讀的書,初讀之時隻覺是一個苟延殘喘的老太太慢悠悠得敘述迴憶著自己的一生,這個女人一生都因自己的執著而做著錯誤的決策,到瞭生命的最後一秒仍不放棄自己的固執,怎麼說,受益匪淺說不上,隻作是聽瞭場戲,看瞭齣他人的故事。

評分

這是一個老女人的迴憶錄。從少女到少婦,從母親到老婦,她的自尊跟驕傲不容許她嚮任何人打開她的心扉。可憐之人必有可恨之處,我想這是對她最好的形容瞭。可是不知道為什麼,我始終對她沒有一絲討厭之情,也許在書的開頭,我看到的是一個讓人憐憫的孤獨老人。
