The Stone Diaries

by Carol Shields

Winner of the Pulitzer Prize. This is a "gentle" book. It is the story of the life of an unassuming, insignificant (?) woman. After reading this story I defy anybody to call anyone "insignificant".

Highly recommended - Senior secondary school students and older
                                 - NCEA Level 2 English reading list
