The narrative unfolds when Matthew and Marilla Cuthbert, aging siblings who live together on their family farm, decide to adopt an orphan boy to help with the daily chores. Due to a misunderstanding, the orphanage mistakenly sends Anne Shirley, a wildly imaginative, talkative, eleven-year-old girl with fiery red hair and a penchant for melodrama. Though the austere Marilla initially intends to send the child back, Anne's infectious optimism, fierce loyalty, and unstoppable spirit eventually soften the siblings' hearts. The story chronicles Anne’s early misadventures, her academic rivalry and eventual romance with Gilbert Blythe, and her growth from a lonely outsider into a beloved and accomplished young woman.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"Fsg96\" data-sfc-cp=\"\" data-sfc-root=\"c\" data-sfc-cb=\"\" data-complete=\"true\" data-processed=\"true\" data-copy-service-computed-style='font-family: \"Google Sans\", \"Helvetica Neue\", sans-serif; font-size: 13px; font-weight: 400; margin: 0px; text-decoration: none; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-bottom-style: none; border-bottom-color: rgb(10, 10, 10);'\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"otQkpb\" aria-level=\"3\" role=\"heading\" data-animation-nesting=\"\" data-sfc-cp=\"\" data-sfc-root=\"c\" data-sfc-cb=\"\" data-complete=\"true\" data-processed=\"true\" data-sae=\"\" data-copy-service-computed-style='font-family: \"Google Sans\", \"Helvetica Neue\", sans-serif; font-size: 20px; font-weight: 600; margin: 24px 0px 12px; text-decoration: none; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-bottom-style: none; border-bottom-color: rgb(10, 10, 10);'\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003eLucy Maud Montgomery was born in 1874 on Prince Edward Island, the stunning Canadian landscape that would serve as the backdrop for almost all of her fiction. Following the tragic death of her mother from tuberculosis when she was only twenty-one months old, she was left in the care of her strict and emotionally distant maternal grandparents. This isolated childhood drove Montgomery to seek solace in her immense imagination, keeping detailed journals and creating vivid imaginary worlds that would later mirror Anne Shirley’s own personality. Despite facing multiple rejections from publishers who initially passed on the manuscript, Montgomery persevered. Behind the immense joy and wonder of her books, her adult life was marked by private hardships, including her husband's severe clinical depression and her own personal struggles, which only fueled her drive to create stories of unyielding hope.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"Fsg96\" data-sfc-cp=\"\" data-sfc-root=\"c\" data-sfc-cb=\"\" data-complete=\"true\" data-processed=\"true\" data-copy-service-computed-style='font-family: \"Google Sans\", \"Helvetica Neue\", sans-serif; font-size: 13px; font-weight: 400; margin: 0px; text-decoration: none; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-bottom-style: none; border-bottom-color: rgb(10, 10, 10);'\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"otQkpb\" aria-level=\"3\" role=\"heading\" data-animation-nesting=\"\" data-sfc-cp=\"\" data-sfc-root=\"c\" data-sfc-cb=\"\" data-complete=\"true\" data-processed=\"true\" data-sae=\"\" data-copy-service-computed-style='font-family: \"Google Sans\", \"Helvetica Neue\", sans-serif; font-size: 20px; font-weight: 600; margin: 24px 0px 12px; text-decoration: none; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-bottom-style: none; border-bottom-color: rgb(10, 10, 10);'\u003e\n\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003eSince its publication in 1908, \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cem class=\"eujQNb\" data-sfc-root=\"c\" data-sfc-cb=\"\" data-complete=\"true\" data-processed=\"true\" data-copy-service-computed-style='font-family: \"Google Sans\", \"Helvetica Neue\", sans-serif; font-size: 16px; font-weight: 400; margin: 0px; text-decoration: none; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-bottom-style: none; border-bottom-color: rgb(10, 10, 10);' style=\"font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003eAnne of Green Gables\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003e has sold over fifty million copies worldwide and has been translated into more than thirty-six languages.
