Product info

<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>Mary Henley Rubio has spent over two decades researching Montgomery's life, and has put together a comprehensive and penetrating picture of this Canadian literary icon, all set in rich social context. Extensive interviews with people who knew Montgomery - her son, maids, friends, relatives, all now deceased - are only part of the material gathered in a journey to understand Montgomery that took Rubio to Poland and the highlands of Scotland. <p/>From Montgomery's apparently idyllic childhood in Prince Edward Island to her passion-filled adolescence and young adulthood, to her legal fights as world-famous author, to her shattering experiences with motherhood and as wife to a deeply troubled man, this fascinating, intimate narrative of her life will engage and delight.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>"Rubio deftly paints the portrait of a multitasking modern woman with an amazing work ethic. The biography soars with the energy of its title, but delves even deeper into Montgomery's dark side."<br>-- <i>The Globe and Mail<br></i><br>"A poignant story about a real family.... The result of Rubio's research is pure Canadian Gothic: a story of sexual repression, class conflict and family secrets."<br>-- <i>The Gazette </i>(Montreal) <p/>"Absolutely gripping ... nothing short of brilliant, an un-put-downable read, and a wonderful examination of this troubled woman's tragic life."<br>-- <i>Ottawa Citizen<br></i><br>"Magisterial."<i><br></i>-- <i>National Post</i><br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br>Mary Henley Rubio is University Professor Emeritus at the University of Guelph. She co-edited <b>The Selected Journals of L.M. Montgomery</b> (five volumes, 1985-2004), co-authored <b>Writing a Life: L.M. Montgomery</b>, and edited <b>Harvesting Thistles: The Textual Garden of L.M. Montgomery</b>. Her most recent book is the <b>Norton Critical Edition of Anne of Green Gables</b>.
