The Cutting Season

by Margaret Clarke

All one winter, a widowed mother and her grown daughter carry on an emotional tug of war. Their relationship is driven by the pressures of the daughter's life as a nurse of the dying at a large city hospital and the mother's fearful but growing independence in an isolated cottage on a Northwestern Ontario lake. The solutions they find at the end of winter neither of them suspects.
