Product Description

Product Description

Over the years sixty members of the Dark family and sixty Penhallows have married one another--but not without their share of fighting and feuding. Now Aunt Becky, the eccentric old matriarch of the clan, has bequeathed her prized possession: a legendary heirloom jug. But the name of the jug's new owner will not be revealed for one year. In the next twelve months beautiful Gay Penhallow's handsome fiance Noel Gibson leaves her for sly and seductive Nan Penhallow; reckless Peter Penhallow and lovely Donna Dark, who have hated each other since childhood, are inexplicably brought together by the jug; Hugh and Joscelyn Dark, separated on their wedding night ten years ago for reasons never revealed, find a second chance--all watched over by the mysterious Moon Man, who has the gift of second sight. Then comes the night when Aunt Becky's wishes will be revealed...and the family is in for the biggest surprise of all.


From the Publisher

Two family clans, the Darks and the Penhallows, fight for possession of a big, brown jug--a family heirloom. The book spans a year in the life of various family members.

5.0 out of 5 stars One of my favourites., Nov 25 2006
By Elaine (Toronto, ON) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Tangled Web (Hardcover)
It's different from LM Montgomery's more popular series' like Emily and Anne because it focusses on many different couples and many different people, but it is one of my favourite of her books. Brilliantly witty, funny, romantic and touching...it made me laugh out loud and made me shed some tears. Definately a must for Montgomery fans.

She has a way with words! Not only are you captivated with the scenes within your mind, you are entertained by the stories. It is almost as if these people come to life for you! L.M. Montgomery is a true artist with writing!!

5.0 out of 5 stars Intricate, Detailed, and Satisfying, April 27 2001
By merrystar (Virginia, USA) - See all my reviews
LMM's gift for portraying people's hopes and dreams and shortcomings in a sympathetic fashion shines in this novel. Among her most unique stories in format, it chooses to follow the fates of an entire clan for a year, alternately "peeping in" on the thoughts of first one person and then another. In most of her novels we see everyone through the lens of the main character: here we see each of them as they see themselves.

The characters' actions and decisions are shadowed by either their own, or their loved ones' desire to win possession of a coveted family jug. And although there is only one jug, the impetus to change and improve their lives results in nearly everyone being happy at the end of the story. LMM is as usual able to evoke both the comical and the noble side of her characters, all the while telling a good story.

In feel and in setting this novel is very typical of LMM's work; the delightful characters and small-town politics will be familiar to anybody who loves her writing. It stands out from her other works because of the multiplicity of characters and storylines.

Over the years this has become one of my favourite LMM novels. I would especially recommend it to any adults reading her books for the first time.

5.0 out of 5 stars Next to 'The Blue Castle,' this is my favorite.
I love LMM's portrayals of big families (like in the Pat books, the Emily books, or 'Magic for Marigold') and this one is just hilarious. Read more

4.0 out of 5 stars Pretty Good
This book is sweet, romantic and incredibly well-written, but it is not one of LM's best. She threw too many characters in one story, so you are apt to get the mixed up. Read more

4.0 out of 5 stars One of LM Montgomery's most intriguing
This is a rather amazing book, in that it has so many stories going on at once. It's astonishing how many people one little (ugly) jug manages to affect! Read more
