| Description | Wallace Stegner’s Pulitzer Prize–winning novel Angle of Repose (1971) is an expansive family chronicle. The ageing historian Lyman Ward, confined to a wheelchair and living in isolation, studies letters and journals left by his grandparents and reconstructs their lives during the settlement of the American West. His grandmother is an artist and writer, her husband an engineer, and their constant movement between mining camps and remote towns mirrors the building of a new country. Working through the archive also becomes a reflection on Ward’s own life. Stegner, both historian and novelist, links private experience with broader historical processes and examines how memory and time create a person’s sense of stability — their own “angle of repose.” |
