Lucy Maud Montgomery Short Stories II gathers a second set of short fiction from the beloved Canadian author, read slowly and softly for sleep.
L.M. Montgomery is best remembered for Anne of Green Gables, but she also wrote hundreds of short stories for magazines in the early 1900s, many set in the small towns and farmhouses of Atlantic Canada. This collection brings together a further handful of those quieter, lesser-known pieces, drawn from across her magazine years: gentle slices of rural life, family ties, and small-town neighbors, told with her usual warmth and light humor.
Each story stands on its own, so there's no plot to keep track of and no harm in dozing off partway through. It's a comfortable listen for fans of old-fashioned, pastoral fiction and cozy domestic stories, or anyone who loves the world of Anne Shirley and wants more time in it.
Elizabeth Grace reads soft and slow, each short tale its own easy stretch of calm on the way down to sleep.
