虽然以创作灵动的安妮·雪莉而闻名,但露西·莫德·蒙哥玛利的写作生涯也很兴旺,包括数百篇短篇小说和诗歌。《围炉》是Rea Wilmshurst在20世纪80年代末和90年代初编辑的蒙哥玛利短篇小说集的延续,包括《A Baking of Gingersnaps》(1895)等故事——是蒙哥玛利发表的处女座。正如安妮在绿山墙找到了一个温暖的家和家人一样,这些故事的重点是家庭和家人,以及人们从他们那里得到的幸福和爱。
Although best known for creating the spirited Anne Shirley, L. M. Montgomery had a thriving writing career that included hundreds of short stories and poems. Around the Hearth is a continuation of the Montgomery short story collections edited by Rea Wilmshurst in the late 1980s and the early 1990s, including stories such as "A Baking of Gingersnaps" (1895) ― the first story Montgomery published. As with Anne, who found a warm and welcoming home and family at Green Gables, these stories focus on homes and families, and the happiness and love people receive from them.
Over many years of careful research and meticulous compiling of resources, Joanne Lebold has curated a collection of short fiction that showcases all the warmth and charisma Montgomery's fans have come to cherish, and offers a rare glimpse into some of the beloved author?s lesser-known works. Includes seventeen short stories originally published between 1895 and 1935.
