عن المؤلف
Lucy Maud Montgomery (1874-1942), noted for her literary contributions that have charmed readers across generations, was a Canadian author whose work is recognized for its narrative vivacity and rich descriptions that celebrate the splendor of Prince Edward Island. Montgomery’s timeless series of novels featuring the character Anne Shirley have ensured her place in the canon of classic children’s literature. ‘Anne of Windy Poplars’ (1936) is the fourth book in this series, where the protagonist Anne takes on a role as a principal of Summerside High School. The book offers insight into Anne’s maturation while weaving themes of rural life, education, and the endurance of friendship. Montgomery’s distinctive style blends romanticism with realism, and her skillful use of the first-person epistolary form in ‘Anne of Windy Poplars’ expands her exploration of Anne’s interior world. Although best known for the Anne series, Montgomery’s bibliography includes poetry, short stories, and over 20 novels. Her work is said to reflect her own struggles with depression and the societal confines of being a woman writer in the early 20th century. Literary critics have analyzed her use of landscape, her biting wit, and her formidable characterization, which position her as a cornerstone in Canadian literature. Montgomery’s contribution extends beyond entertainment; her narratives of female empowerment and persistence in the face of adversity continue to resonate and inspire.
