The Chronicles of Avonlea
Author: Lucy Maud Montgomery
Publisher: Jazzybee Verlag
ISBN: 3849696545
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 172
Book Description
Miss Montgomery continues to follow up the vein she opened in "Anne of Green Gables." These stories are all of Spencervale or Avonlea. Anne herself —or what we hope to be a caricature of her—appears on the cover, and is mentioned now and again within. But she is not the leading figure in any of the tales, which might have been called "Romances of Middle Age," so strongly does a single motive dominate them. Ten out of the dozen stories deal with belated love-affairs, or with the pathetic devotion of age for youth.
