The Selected Journals of L.M. Montgomery, Volume V: 1935-1942 Paperback / softback

Edited by Mary Rubio, Elizabeth Waterston

Paperback / softback

Description

Elizabeth Waterston is a 2011 Fellow of The Royal Society of Canada. The final volume of the immensely successful The Selected Journals of L.M.

Montgomery covers the years 1935 to 1942, the year of Montgomery's death.

No longer dwelling in a farm community or a small rural village, Lucy Maud Montgomery explored life in downtown Toronto.

Here she experienced the cultural riches the city had to offer while finding friendship and neighbourliness in the suburb of Swansea.

The journal chronicles her hopes and satisfaction with her new home and neighbourhood, but also her struggles with her own and her husband's recurring bouts of depression, her worries about her sons' academic performance, and her thoughts on the world events during these years. The final volume in the series offers an intimate eyewitness account of life in a growing city, a friendly neighbourhood, a changing world, and of a troubling family dynamic from 1935 to 1942, all recorded with Lucy Maud Montgomery's sharp eye and characteristic wit.
