This celebratory essay honours 150 years since the birth of L.M. Montgomery in 1874 by considering the intersection of celebration and story. In Montgomery’s work, celebration and story are rooted in place, are experienced by budding writers, and relate to birth, that very first of birthdays.
✍️✨ The celebration continues! Here’s the next piece in our #Maud150: Back to the Future collection, offering a fresh perspective on Montgomery’s enduring influence.
