Summary:
Adultery, illegitimacy, misogyny, revenge, murder, despair, bitterness, hatred, and death - usually not the first terms associated with L.M. Montgomery. But in "The Blythes Are Quoted", completed shortly before her death and never before published in its entirety, Montgomery brought these topics to the forefront in what she intended to be the ninth volume in her bestselling series featuring Anne. "The Blythes Are Quoted" contains fifteen episodes that include an adult Anne and her family.
"Takes Anne and her family a full two decades beyond anything else she published about them...Divided into two sections, one set before and one after the Great War of 1914-1918, it contains fifteen short stories set in and around the Blythes' Prince Edward Island community of Glen St. Mary. Binding these stories are sketches featuring Anne and Gilbert Blythe discussing poems by Anne and their middle son, Walter, who dies as a soldier in the war. By blending poetry, prose, and dialogue in this way, Montgomery was at the end of her career experimenting with storytelling methods in an entirely new manner."--P. [2] of jacket.
