We know Rachel, sympathize with her, and in a sense, become Rachel, so authentic is her voice. . . . A Jest of God has extraordinary clarity, beautiful detail, as well as the emotional impact of honest confession.'Joan J. Hall, Saturday Review'Laurence's rendition is close to faultless . . . reaffirming her ability to draw, without pathos, lifesized women. . . . Skillfully wrought and eloquently told.'Marilyn Gardner, Christian Science MonitorOne of Canada's most accomplished writers, Margaret Laurence(19261987) was the recipient of many awards, including the prestigious Governer General's Litarary Award for The Diviners and A Jest of God.
