When she was asked to contribute a short story to a magazine, she dusted off an idea for a plot she had jotted down when she was much younger, and turned it into Anne of Green Gables, one of the most popular books ever written. Lucy said about the book: I thought girls in their teens might like it. But grandparents, school and college boys, old pioneers in the Australian bush, girls in India, missionaries in China, monks in remote monasteries, premiers of Great Britain, and red-headed people all over the world have written to me, telling me how they loved Anne and her successors. Lucy married a Presbyterian minister in 1911 and moved with him to Toronto. She continued to set her stories on the only island there is and where her heart always remained.

Fru Rachel Lynde bodde alldeles dar stora landsvagen till Avonlea svangde ned i en liten dalsanka, kantad av alar och ormbunkar och genomfluten av en back, som hade sin kalla lngt inne i skogen p andra sidan den gamla Cuthbertska grden. Den pstods vara en ganska nyckfull och yster back under sitt forsta lopp genom dessa skogar, med morka hemligheter av tjarnar och porlande fall mellan stenblocken. Men nar den hann fram till Lyndes sanka, var den ett lugnt och sedesamt litet vattendrag, ty inte ens en back kunde passera forbi fru Rachel Lyndes dorr utan tillborlig hansyn till anstandigheten och det passande.Den hade formodligen reda p, att fru Rachel satt i sitt fonster och holl ett vaksamt oga p allting, som kom forbi, frn och med backar och barnungar, och att, om hon markte ngonting besynnerligt eller oriktigt, hon aldrig skulle ge sig ngon levande ro, forran hon uppsprat grunden och orsaken.

En lng, smart flicka i sjuttonrsldern, med allvarliga gr ogon och ett hr, som hennes vanner kallade kastanjebrunt, hade slagit sig ned p den roda sandstentrappan utanfor en lantlig stuga p Prins Edvards o en harlig solskenseftermiddag i augusti. Hon hade foresatt sig att oversatta femtio rader i Virgilius.Men denna augustieftermiddag, d bl tockenslojor lgo som lattaste flor over de boljande sadesfalten, skalmska vindflaktar tisslade och tasslade i popplarna och vallmorna glodde i grannaste rott inne i furudungen langst borta i tradgrden, lampade sig vida battre for svarmiska drommerier an for latinska studier. Virgilius gled snart obemarkt ned p marken; Anne stodde hakan mot sina hopknappta hander, riktade blicken mot den glansande massa ulliga moln, som likt ett stort vitt berg tornade upp sig rakt over herr Harrisons hus, och befann sig snart lngt borta i en fortjusande varld, dar en viss ung och nybakad skollararinna utrattade ett underbart arbete, utformade blivande statsmans oden och fyllde ungdomliga sinnen och hjartan med hogtstravande arelystnad

Skorden ar bargad, och sommarn ar slut, smsjong Anne Shirley och blickade drommande ut over de mejade falten. Hon och Diana Barry hade plockat ned applen i Gronkullas kokstradgrd, men nu sutto de och vilade sig efter sina modor i en solig vr, dit latta tistelfjun kommo flygande, burna av vindflaktar, som annu voro sommarljumma och doftande av ormbunkarna inne i Spokskogen.Men allt hos landskapet omkring dem talade om host. Havet brusade dovt i fjarran, falten lgo kala och fortorkade, strodda har och dar med gullris, dalsankan, dar backen flot forbi Gronkulla, lyste av purpurvioletta astrar, och Morka, speglande vgen var blare an ngonsin. Men det var icke vrens nyckfullt skiftande bl, icke heller sommarens bleka azur, utan en klar, lugn och mattad farg, som om vattnet overvunnit all slags lynnighet och upprordhet och sjunkit han i ett tillstnd av ro, som aldrig mera skulle storas av flyktiga och oberakneliga drommar.

Gud vare tack geometrien har jag d sluppit ifrn, bde att soka f in den i min egen arma hjarna och att plugga den i andra, sade Anne Shirley och slangde med skadeglad min en nott och tillbucklad Euklides ned i en stor boklr. S slog hon triumferande igen locket, satte sig p det och tittade tvars over Gronkullas vind p Diana Wright med gra ogon, som liknade en luftigt skimrande morgonsky.Vinden var, som ju alla vindar bora vara, en trevlig gammal plats med morka skrymslen och vrr under takbjalkarna, som satte fantasien i rorelse. Genom det oppna fonstret, invid vilket Anne satt, flaktade augustieftermiddagens milda, doftande och solvarma luft, och dar utanfor prasslade och svangde popplarnas grenar for vinden. Bortom dem lgo skogen, dar De alskandes strt mjukt buktade sig fram mellan mossiga stammar och ormbunkssnr, och den gamla kokstradgrden, dar appletraden fortforo att bara rika, rosiga skordar. Och som en bakgrund stod mot den bl himmelen i soder en valdig bergskedja av hogt upptornade, snovita moln. Genom det motsatta fonstret skymtade man p avstnd ett blnande hav med skum p vgtopparna den vackra S:t Lorenzobukten, varur hojer sig det lummigt gronskande Abegweit. Men detta vekt och milt klingande indianska namn har for lange sedan utbytts mot det mera prosaiska Prins Edvards o.

It was a clear, apple-green evening in May, and Four Winds Harbour was mirroring back the clouds of the golden west between its softly dark shores. The sea moaned eerily on the sand-bar, sorrowful even in spring, but a sly, jovial wind came piping down the red harbour road along which Miss Cornelias comfortable, matronly figure was making its way towards the village of Glen St. Mary. Miss Cornelia was rightfully Mrs. Marshall Elliott, and had been Mrs. Marshall Elliott for thirteen years, but even yet more people referred to her as Miss Cornelia than as Mrs. Elliott. The old name was dear to her old friends, only one of them contemptuously dropped it. Susan Baker, the gray and grim and faithful handmaiden of the Blythe family at Ingleside, never lost an opportunity of calling her Mrs. Marshall Elliott, with the most killing and pointed emphasis, as if to say You wanted to be Mrs. and Mrs. you shall be with a vengeance as far as I am concerned.
