Description

Las peripecias de Ana de las Tejas Verdes, una saga clásica ahora revisada y actualizada en esta cuidada edición ilustrada. Uno de los personajes más entrañables de la literatura universal.

El sueño de Ana Shirley está a punto de hacerse realidad. Llegó el momento de dejar atrás su querida isla y tomar rumbo hacia la universidad. Nuevas amistades, caras conocidas, importantes desafíos... y más de una propuesta de matrimonio. Más independiente que nunca, Ana deberá tomar sus propias decisiones. Pero ¿acertará siempre?

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

The adventures of Anne of Green Gables, a classic saga now revised and updated in this illustrated edition. One of the most endearing characters in world literature.

Anne's own true love, Gilbert Blythe, is finally a doctor, and in the sunshine of the old orchard, among their dearest friends, they are about to speak their vows. Soon the happy couple will be bound for a new life together and their own dream house, on the misty purple shores of Four Winds Harbor.

A new life means fresh problems to solve, fresh surprises. Anne and Gilbert will make new friends and meet their neighbors: Captain Jim, the lighthouse attendant, with his sad stories of the sea; Miss Cornelia Bryant, the lady who speaks from the heart —and speaks her mind; and the tragically beautiful Leslie Moore, into whose dark life Anne shines a brilliant light.

About the author

Lucy Maud Montgomery was born in Clifton (now New London), Prince Edward Island, in 1874. After the death of her mother in 1876, Montgomery was raised by her maternal grandparents in the nearby community of Cavendish. She received a teaching certificate in 1894, and studied literature at Dalhousie University in Halifax, Nova Scotia, in 1895. After a brief career as a teacher at various island schools, she moved back to Cavendish in 1898. In 1911, she married the Reverend Ewan Macdonald and moved to Leaskdale, Ontario, where Macdonald was minister in the Presbyterian Church. A prolific writer, she published a number of short stories, poems, and novels, but is best known for Anne of Green Gables and its sequels: Anne of Avonlea, Anne of the Island, Anne of Windy Poplars, Anne's House of Dreams, Anne of Ingleside, Rainbow Valley, and Rilla Of Ingleside. Montgomery died in Toronto in 1942 and was buried in her beloved Cavendish, Prince Edward Island.
