À propos de cet e-book
In 'The Complete Emily Starr Series,' Lucy Maud Montgomery tenderly unfolds the life of Emily Starr, a young writer whose journey through hardship and discovery bears a sensitive resemblance to the author's own experiences. Montgomery's prose is both eloquent and emotive, capturing the intricate essence of adolescence and creative awakening. Set against the bucolic backdrop of Prince Edward Island, a character in its own right, the trilogy marries the ardent beauty of youth with the solemn threads of rejection and perseverance. Through 'Emily of New Moon,' 'Emily Climbs,' and 'Emily's Quest,' readers witness the harmonic and sometimes dissonant melodies of Emily's growth, as she carves her path in a world both cruel and kind. Unlike Anne, her literary sister, Emily's artistic vocation is less whimsical and more a profound calling, reflected in Montgomery's nuanced story-telling and deeply-felt narrative voice, encapsulated within these three volumes of the enduring series. Lucy Maud Montgomery's life and literary endeavors echo within the pages of these novels. Born in 1874, Montgomery's endowment as a storyteller found solace and expression in her creation of Emily, offering glimpses into the author's own struggles and triumphs. The completion of 'Emily's Quest' after the interlude of 'The Blue Castle' underscores a period of contemplation and maturity in her career. Montgomery's prolific output, encompassing 20 novels and numerous shorter works, is a testament to her dedication to carving a space for women's voices and experiences within the literary canon, a struggle mirrored by Emily's own aspirations. The series not only reflects Montgomery's personal journey but also serves as a beacon of inspiration and resilience for readers and writers alike. 'The Complete Emily Starr Series' is recommended for readers who seek a soulful exploration of femininity, creativity, and perseverance. Montgomery's articulate evocation of the landscape of Prince Edward Island and her delicate interweaving of bildungsroman with romantic ideals position this work as an enlightening and timeless passage through a girl's transition from childhood to adulthood. It invites those who cherished 'Anne of Green Gables' to meet another of Montgomery's kindred spirits, offering a narrative that is equally captivating and distinct in its portrayal of a young woman's pursuit of literary accomplishment and personal fulfillment. This series endures as a profound addition to the literary heritage of L.M. Montgomery, and to Canadian literature as a whole.
À propos de l'auteur
Lucy Maud Montgomery, commonly known as L.M. Montgomery, was an esteemed Canadian author born on November 30, 1874, in Clifton (now New London), Prince Edward Island. Her literary career was marked by her rich storytelling that vividly depicted life in rural Canada, with a particular focus on the experiences of young girls. Montgomery is best known for her Anne of Green Gables series, which chronicles the adventures of Anne Shirley, an imaginative and spirited orphan. However, her talent extended beyond Anne's world with works like 'The Complete Emily Starr Series', which presents another beloved heroine, Emily Starr, as she aspires to become a writer against the backdrop of Prince Edward Island's idyllic landscape. Montgomery's writing has been celebrated for its use of colorful characters, exploration of themes such as belonging and identity, along with a touch of romance and humor. Her works not only found commercial success but also garnered critical acclaim for their contribution to children's literature. Montgomery's stories continue to resonate with readers and have left an indelible mark on Canadian culture. She was made an Officer of the Order of the British Empire in 1935 and her literary legacy lives on, influencing generations of writers and readers worldwide. Montgomery passed away on April 24, 1942, her work having enriched the tapestry of early 20th-century literature.
