Publisher Synopsis
"In this first volume of 'The L.M. Montgomery Library,' Benjamin Lefebvre collects and expertly annotates Montgomery's non-fiction periodical writing, presenting it as a record of her literary apprenticeship ... The thirty-five instalments of her column 'Around the Table,' signed 'Cynthia,' are enthralling, ... and A Name for Herself is worth the cover price for these pieces alone." -- Faye Hammill * Times Literary Supplement * "Lefebvre, one of the top Montgomery scholars in the world, has painstakingly collected these scattered publications from throughout Montgomery's career to provide a valuable resource ... By including Montgomery's contributions to these publications, many of which were fleeting, Lefebvre enriches our knowledge of the periodical landscape in North America and demonstrates how these magazines and newspapers were important vehicles for women authors in Canada and the United States." -- Jennifer Scott, <em>Victorian Periodicals Review</em> "In this rich volume, Lefebvre's selections reveal Montgomery as a professional writer who deserves a strong and enduring presence in Canadian letters." -- Rita Bode, Trent University * <em>University of Toronto Quarterly: Letters in Canada 2018</em> * Read more...
