Jane of Lantern Hill

Beschreibung

From the author of Anne of Green Gables, this is the delightful story of Jane Victoria Stuart, a young girl leading an unsatisfied life in Toronto, Ontario, where she lives with her mother, aunt, and cranky old grandma. Jane has always believed her father to be dead, but her world is turned upside down when she discovers that he is, in fact, alive and residing on Prince Edward Island. This revelation sets Jane on a journey of self-discovery as she sets off to spend a summer with him at Lantern Hill. She finds herself in a world vastly different from the one she has known. Surrounded by the island's natural beauty and the warmth of her father's love, Jane experiences a happiness she never thought possible. The summer at Lantern Hill becomes a magical time of personal growth, joy, and newfound freedom. Jane of Lantern Hill is a heartwarming tale of family, discovery, and the enduring bond between a father and daughter. Lucy Maud Montgomery's masterful storytelling and richly drawn characters bring this enchanting story to life, making it a cherished addition to her beloved works.

Autor

The best-known works by Canadian author Lucy Maud Montgomery OBE, also known by her pen as L M Montgomery (November 30, 1874 - April 24, 1942), include a number of novels, essays, short tales, and poems that began with Anne of Green Gables in 1908. Along with 530 short stories, 500 poems, and 30 articles, she also authored 20 novels. The novel Anne of Green Gables was an instant hit, and the titular character, the orphan Anne Shirley, helped make Lucy Maud Montgomery famous and earned her a global following. The majority of the novels were set in Prince Edward Island, and those parts of Canada's tiniest province-specifically, Green Gables farm, which served as the inspiration for Prince Edward Island National Park-became literary landmarks and well-liked tourist destinations. In 1935, she received the title of officer of the Order of the British Empire. Scholars and readers from all over the world have read and studied Montgomery's writings, journals, and correspondence. The University of Prince Edward Island's L. M. Montgomery Institute is in charge of doing academic research into L. M. Montgomery's life, works, culture, and influence. On November 30, 1874, Lucy Maud Montgomery was born in Clifton, Prince Edward Island (now New London).
