商品簡介
L. M. Montgomery's The Blue Castle is a warm, witty and deeply moving novel about courage, independence and the unexpected possibility of beginning again. At twenty-nine, Valancy Stirling has spent her life doing exactly what is expected of her. Surrounded by a domineering family and trapped in a narrow, joyless existence, she escapes only in her imagination-to a beautiful place she calls the Blue Castle. Then a devastating medical diagnosis changes everything. Believing she has only a short time left to live, Valancy decides to stop being afraid. She speaks her mind, leaves her family home, befriends the people society has rejected-and makes a decision that shocks everyone who thought they knew her. What follows is a charming and quietly rebellious story of freedom, self-discovery and unexpected love. First published in 1926, The Blue Castle is one of L. M. Montgomery's rare novels written for an adult audience and remains one of her most distinctive works. L. M. Montgomery. The Blue Castle. First published as: The Blue Castle.
