About this audiobook
Lucy Maud Montgomery's Emily Starr trilogy—Emily of New Moon, Emily Climbs, and Emily's Quest—traces the artistic and emotional education of an orphaned girl whose fierce imaginative life sets her apart in rural Prince Edward Island. Written in Montgomery's lyrical, observant prose, the novels combine bildungsroman, Künstlerroman, romance, and regional fiction, presenting creativity as both vocation and burden. Emily's "flash," her mystical apprehension of beauty, gives the trilogy a more inward and gothic shading than Anne of Green Gables, while retaining Montgomery's wit, domestic realism, and sensitivity to landscape. Montgomery, born in 1874 on Prince Edward Island, drew deeply on her own experiences of loss, ambition, disciplined authorship, and attachment to place. Like Emily, she knew the constraints placed upon gifted girls and women, the solace of writing, and the complex negotiations between imagination and social expectation. The trilogy's concern with publication, self-fashioning, and artistic perseverance reflects Montgomery's mature understanding of literary labor. This complete trilogy is highly recommended to readers interested in women's writing, Canadian literature, and nuanced coming-of-age fiction. It offers not only charm and romance, but a profound study of vocation, resilience, and the making of an artist.
