Now available in paperback, The L.M. Montgomery Reader assembles
rediscovered primary material on one of Canada's most enduringly
popular authors, spanning the entirety of her high-profile career
and the years since her death. Volume Three: A Legacy in Review
examines a long overlooked portion of Montgomery's critical
reception: reviews of her books. Although Montgomery downplayed the
impact that reviews had on her writing career, claiming to be
amused and tolerant of reviewers' contradictory opinions about her
work, she nevertheless cared enough to keep a large percentage of
them in scrapbooks as an archive of her career. This volume
presents more than four hundred reviews from eight countries that
raise questions about and offer reflections on gender, genre,
setting, character, audience, and nationalism, much of which
anticipated the scholarship that has thrived in the last four
decades. Each volume in The L.M. Montgomery Reader is accompanied
by an extensive introduction and detailed commentary by leading
Montgomery scholar Benjamin Lefebvre that traces the interplay
between the author and the critic, as well as between the private
and the public Montgomery.
