Anne of Ingleside
Bok av Lucy Maud Montgomery
Lucy Maud Montgomery was born in Clifton, Prince Edward Island, Canada, on November 30, 1874. Her mother died when she was a toddler and her devastated father asked her grandparents to raise her. Her childhood years in Cavendish were very lonely. Lucy's solution at this early age was to create imaginary worlds and people them with imaginary friends. Her creativity was beginning to establish itself in her life. With her studying days over Lucy began a career as a teacher and worked at various Prince Edward Island schools. It was soon obvious to her that she did not enjoy teaching but the benefit was that it gave her time to write. That was now her real passion. Much of her early career was spent writing short stories. Indeed in the decade from 1897 magazines and newspapers published over 100 stories from the prolific young writer. In 1908, Lucy published her first book, the classic, Anne of Green Gables. It was an immediate success and quickly established her career. During her lifetime, Lucy published 20 novels, 530 short stories, 500 poems, and 30 essays. Aware of her fame, by 1920 Lucy began editing and recopying her journals, reframing her life as she wanted it remembered. Lucy Maud Montgomery died on April 24, 1942 in Toronto. A note was found beside her bed, "e;I have lost my mind by spells and I do not dare think what I may do in those spells. May God forgive me and I hope everyone else will forgive me even if they cannot understand. My position is too awful to endure and nobody realizes it. What an end to a life in which I tried always to do my best."e; The official cause of death was a coronary thrombosis.
Detta är den 6 boken i serien Anne på Grönkulla, skriven av Lucy Maud Montgomerys.

Återigen få vi följa den härliga rödhåriga, drivna, livliga tjejen Anne, hennes fem barn och make Gilbert. Det händer mycket i hemmet på Ingelside, moster Maria kommer på besök men dem kommer inte riktigt överens och har helt olika syn på hur ett hem ska styras. Gilbert får en inbjudan från sin förra kärlek och vill genas tacka ja. Anne blir orolig och undrar om Gilbert inte älskar henne längre. Har han glömt bort deras bröllopsdag? Vad kommer hända, är allt som det verkligen ser ut? Våran Anne har återigen mycket att fundera över.

Den här boken använder fortfarande ett fantastiskt språk som jag älskar, men det är för lite Anne och för mycket fokus på dem runt omkring.
