Descriptions du produit
Amazon.ca Canadian Essential
Of course L.M. Montgomery is still best known for her first novel, Anne of Green Gables, likely the most famous (and best loved) Canadian book of any kind. But many fans who have read further in her work come to love her later Emily books even more. Beginning with 1924's Emily of New Moon, their story of a young girl's growing ambition to be a writer has influenced generations of young Canadian writers who followed.

Anne may be L.M. Montgomery's most famous heroine, but as far as fans of the Emily books are concerned she can't compare with the elfin poet of New Moon. Emily, who was also Montgomery's favourite character, bears a certain resemblance to Anne. Like the spunky, red-headed orphan of Green Gables, 10-year-old Emily Byrd Starr loses both her parents and ends up living with a stern spinster in a remote but beautiful farming community on Prince Edward Island. Also like Anne, her high spirits get her into lots of mischief. But the raven-haired Emily, with her purple eyes and come-hither smile, is a more conventionally romantic heroine than Anne. While Anne of Green Gables is the ugly-duckling tale of a young girl's yearning for love and acceptance, Emily's ethereal looks guarantee her admirers from the beginning.
What Emily wants desperately is to be a writer. As she explains to her teacher, "Why, I have to write--I can't help it by times--I've just got to." In this novel and its two sequels, Emily Climbs and Emily's Quest, Montgomery tells the moving and semi-autobiographical story of Emily's struggle to realize her ambition. The opening chapters of Emily of New Moon, dealing with the death of Emily's consumptive father, are awkward and melodramatic. But few children's novels--Little Women and Harriet the Spy come to mind--offer as fine a portrait of an artistic child's imaginative inner life. Spend some time with Emily and her friends and you'll be a fan, too. (Ages 9 to 12) --Lisa Alward --Ce texte provient de la Mass Market Paperback édition.
