About the author
Lucy Maud Montgomery (1874–1942), fondly known as L. M. Montgomery, holds an indisputable position in Canadian literature as the creator of the acclaimed Anne Shirley series. Best known for 'Anne of Green Gables' (1908), Montgomery's works have enchanted generations of readers with their endearing characters and picturesque Prince Edward Island setting. 'Anne of the Island', the third book in the Anne series published in 1915, continues Anne's adventures as she leaves Avonlea to attend Redmond College. Montgomery's literary style in this book, as in her others, is marked by a blending of humor and poignancy, combined with a richly detailed narrative that captures the essence of 19th-century Maritime Canada. The author's own life experiences—her struggles with depression, her love for her native island, and her work as a teacher and journalist—infuse her writings with authenticity and emotional depth. Beyond the Anne series, Montgomery's body of work includes numerous other novels, over 500 short stories, an autobiography, and a volume of poetry. Her legacy as a key figure in children's literature and a chronicler of a bygone era remains deeply influential, ensuring her place among the canon of treasured authors.
