Produktbeschreibung
Lucy Maud Montgomery's novel Rilla of Ingleside is one of her literary work. In the Anne of Green Gables series, it is the eighth and last novel. The youngest daughter of Anne, Rilla Blythe, is the focus of the narrative, which takes place during World War I. Rilla is a carefree fifteen-year-old during the beginning of the war who is more focused on social gatherings than the struggle in Europe. Rilla's life, however, is irreparably altered as the war goes on and her siblings and friends join the military. She becomes engaged in the war effort and assumes additional duties, such as looking after Jims, an orphan from the conflict. Rilla goes through the joys and sorrows of love, grief, and sacrifice throughout the whole book. The story examines issues like bravery, patriotism, and the effects of war on communities and families. Rilla of Ingleside is a moving coming-of-age tale that echoes the author's personal experiences during World War 1 and captures the essence of the period. The book is still a well-loved classic in Canadian literature and is recognized as one of Montgomery's most important works.
Autorenporträt
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).
