This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Gathering Emily of New Moon, Emily Climbs, and Emily's Quest in unabridged form, The Complete Emily Starr Trilogy traces the imaginative and emotional education of Emily Byrd Starr, an orphaned girl in Prince Edward Island whose fierce vocation is to write. More inward and artistically self-conscious than Montgomery's Anne books, the trilogy blends domestic realism, Gothic atmospheres, romance, and Künstlerroman, rendering childhood perception with lyrical intensity. Its journals, letters, and visionary moments place Emily within a tradition of female coming-of-age fiction concerned with authorship, constraint, and self-possession. Lucy Maud Montgomery (1874-1942), born on Prince Edward Island and raised amid the landscapes she made famous, knew intimately the tensions between duty, isolation, ambition, and imaginative freedom. A prolific diarist, teacher, journalist, and novelist, she transformed personal experiences of bereavement, rural community, and literary aspiration into fiction. Emily's determination to become an author reflects Montgomery's own disciplined struggle for artistic recognition. Readers drawn to psychologically acute childhood narratives, Canadian regional literature, or portraits of women artists will find this trilogy especially rewarding. It offers not merely nostalgia, but a searching study of talent, resilience, and the cost of remaining faithful to one's inner life. 444 pp. Englisch. Codice articolo 9788027387014
