Chargement... The Selected Journals of L. M. Montgomery: Vol. 5, 1935-1942par L. M. Montgomery
   Actuellement, il n'y a pas de discussions au sujet de ce livre.   ) ME_Dictionary | Mar 19, 2020 |  This is the last volume in L.M. Montgomery’s journals. She started writing them when she was about 14 years old, and continued throughout most of her life. In volume 5, she and her husband Ewan, a minister, have moved into Toronto; he is no longer preaching. Their sons, Chester and Stuart are going to law school and medical school, respectively. Maud spends a lot of her time worrying about Ewan, who is often very depressed, and Chester, who managed to get himself into all kinds of trouble. Maud herself is often depressed. It’s an interesting look at the life of probably one of the most famous Canadian authors, told in her own words. Her fans would never have known it, but she was not a very happy woman.
