“I don’t want to be anyone but myself. I am happy to be Anne of Green Gables.”
「除了我自己,我不想成為任何人。我很開心自己是綠屋頂之家的安妮。」

Lucy Maud Montgomery (露西‧莫德‧蒙哥馬利) was born in Canada in 1874. Montgomery’s mother died when she was little. Then she lived with her grandparents on a farm that was the inspiration for ‘Green Gables’. Montgomery was an imaginative child. She liked boys’ activities like fishing, climbing trees and inventing scary ghost stories. She started writing stories at nine years old.
In 1894 Montgomery went to university. She continued writing and after university she worked as a teacher. Later she left to become a journalis. She wrote her stories before and after work. It was difficult and she soon quit her job to write full time.
In 1904 Montgomery finished writing her first book, Anne of Green Gables. It was rejected many times before it was published in 1908. Anne of Green Gables was translated into 20 languages. In 1911 Montgomery married Ewen Macdonald. They lived in Ontario with their children. Lucy Maud Montgomery died at the age of 68 in Toronto.
