Anne of the Island

Written by Lucy Maud Montgomery

Narrated by Erin Bateman

New adventures lie ahead as the plucky and young Anne Shirley packs her bags, waves good-bye to her memories in rural Avonlea and heads for Redmond College in Nova Scotia. Anne of the Island follows Anne, her friends and potential suitors through all four years of college, and tells the story of how a young woman’s idealized notions of romance are replaced by a mature sensibility of what love really is.

Lucy Maud Montgomery

L. M. (Lucy Maud) Montgomery (1874-1942) was a Canadian author who published 20 novels and hundreds of short stories, poems, and essays. She is best known for the Anne of Green Gables series. Montgomery was born in Clifton (now New London) on Prince Edward Island on November 30, 1874. Raised by her maternal grandparents, she grew up in relative isolation and loneliness, developing her creativity with imaginary friends and dreaming of becoming a published writer. Her first book, Anne of Green Gables, was published in 1908 and was an immediate success, establishing Montgomery's career as a writer, which she continued for the remainder of her life.
