Bertha Marilla Blythe, also known as Rilla, is a teenager whose
life dramatically changes with the onset and subsequent events of
the first World War. She must quickly mature and adapt to a new
normal, while awaiting the fate of her loved ones. Rilla Blythe is
the bright young daughter of Anne Shirley and Gilbert Blythe. She's
a social butterfly who's more interested in school dances than
formal education. With the outbreak of World War I, Rilla's forced
to shift her priorities. Her brothers, childhood friends and first
love all enlist in the service and are immediately sent abroad.
Rilla attempts to do her part at home by collecting donations and
supporting the Red Cross. During her efforts, she notices the dire
effect the conflict has on families, particularly children. When
she discovers an orphaned infant, Rilla is faced with new
responsibilities that change her life forever. Rilla of Ingleside
is one of the last books in the beloved Anne of Green Gables
series. Despite its serious tone, the novel still maintains a
message of hope and perseverance. Rilla is a vibrant character, who
like her mother, chooses to forge her own path. With an
eye-catching new cover, and professionally typeset manuscript, this
edition of Rilla of Ingleside is both modern and readable.
