Lucy Maud Montgomery (1874–1942) stands as one of Canada’s most enduringly popular authors, whose works have charmed readers worldwide with their earnestness, wholesome values, and vivid characterizations. Born on Prince Edward Island, her upbringing amidst its pastoral beauty profoundly influenced her writing. Montgomery’s literary career was propelled to international acclaim with the publication of ‘Anne of Green Gables’ in 1908, a book that has since become a classic in children’s literature and undergone numerous adaptations. The pastoral landscapes and communities of Prince Edward Island serve as a backdrop to much of her work, providing a canvas for her to explore themes of belonging, imagination, and resilience. Her ‘Emily Starr Trilogy, ‘ comprising ‘Emily of New Moon, ‘ ‘Emily Climbs, ‘ and ‘Emily’s Quest, ‘ continues this tradition. Across this series, readers follow the titular Emily through childhood and early adulthood’s trials and triumphs, reflecting Montgomery’s own life experiences and personal aspirations as a writer. Her literary style is marked by rich descriptions, a keen sense of place, and characters who, though products of their time, inspire with their aspirational qualities.

Her work remains seminal, not only for its contribution to Canadian literature but also for its enduring thematic resonance and portrayal of indomitable female protagonists.
