Visit us online at www.1stWorldLibrary.ORG - - ~~~~~~Anne Shirley was curled up on the window-seat of Theodora Dix's sitting-room one Saturday evening, looking dreamily afar at some fair starland beyond the hills of sunset. Anne was visiting for a fortnight of her vacation at Echo Lodge, where Mr. and Mrs. Stephen Irving were spending the summer, and she often ran over to the old Dix homestead to chat for awhile with Theodora. They had had their chat out, on this particular evening, and Anne was giving herself over to the delight of building an air-castle. She leaned her shapely head, with its braided coronet of dark red hair, against the window-casing, and her gray eyes were like the moonlight gleam of shadowy pools.
Autorenporträt
Autora da famosa série da personagem Anne Shirley, Lucy Maud Montgomery nasceu em 30 de novembro de 1874, em Clifton, na Ilha do Príncipe Edward, Canadá. Viveu com seus avós maternos até os 7 anos, idade em que passou a morar com o pai. No ano de 1911, casou-se com o reverendo Ewen Macdonald e mudou-se para Leaksdale, em Ontário, cidade onde nasceram seus três filhos e ela escreveu diversos de seus livros. Apesar de viver no continente, as paisagens da Ilha e as aventuras que viveu lá quando criança serviram de grande inspiração para suas obras, especialmente a série Anne. Lucy faleceu em 24 de abril de 1942.
