Summary:
The fourth
volume
of the
Selected
Journals
of
L
.M.
Montgomery
covers the years from 1929 to 1935, a tumultuous period in the writer's life. By 1929,
Montgomery
was 54 years old and known world-wide as the author of Anne of Green Gables and many other books, yet this was also a time of numerous setbacks. The stock market crash, a drop in royalties from her many books, the need to provide her two sons with a university education, her husband's modest church salary in arrears, and the fact that many loans she made to friends and family were not repaid, placed
Montgomery
in the position where she had to type her own manuscripts for the first time since 1910. She also had to face personal crises as her sons' university results were extremely disappointing, her husband suffered a total nervous breakdown, she had concerns over her own mental state, there was further controversy in her husband's parish - Norval Presbyterian Church - and
Montgomery
became the unwilling object of a young woman's declaration of passionate love. The
volume
opens with joyful travels to Prince Edward Island and western Canada and ends with her looking forward with great excitement to a new life in Toronto.
