Your Satisfaction is Guaranteed:
Hagar Shipley, a fiercely proud woman facing the end of her life, escapes from her nursing home and searches for a way to reconcile herself to her tumultuous past and come to terms with mortality.
Review:
"This is revelation not impersonation. The effect of such skilled use of language is to lead the reader toward the self-recognition that Hagar misses."
Robertson Davies, New York Times
Review:"A portrait of a remarkable character and at the same time the picture of old age itself, with the pain, the weariness, the terror, the impotent angers and physical mishaps, the realization that others are waiting and wishing for an end."
Margaret Laurence, 1973
