Lucy Maud Montgomery was a Canadian regional romantic novelist, born on November 30, 1874, in Clifton, P.E.I., Canada, and died on April 24, 1942, in Toronto. She is most famous for her novel Anne of Green Gables (1908), which tells the heartwarming tale of an independent and lively orphan girl who finds a loving home with an elderly couple. The book utilised the author’s personal experiences throughout her childhood and incorporated elements of rural life and traditions from Prince Edward Island. Previously working as a journalist and educator, she gained worldwide recognition among both adults and children following the release of Anne. However, the six subsequent installments, which chronicle Anne’s journey from adolescence to adulthood, did not achieve the same level of success.
