Anne of the Island
Anne of the Island, published in 1915, is the third of L. M. Montgomery's novels about Anne Shirley. Anne leaves Avonlea for Redmond College in Kingsport, where she and her friends set up house at Patty's Place, a cottage with two china dogs on the mantel. Four years of study, friendships, and proposals follow; Anne refuses more than one suitor, tries to write stories for publication, and nearly accepts the handsome Royal Gardner before discovering where her heart has been all along. The book balances comedy and grief, including the death of a childhood friend, and it brings the long courtship of Gilbert Blythe to its resolution. It is the most grown-up of the early Anne books. It is available to read online in your browser on Vinteuil, with the first chapter free.
