The Blue Castle - Hardcover

Browbeaten and stifled by her overbearing family members, Valancy Stirling finds consolation in her imaginary Blue Castle, a place where she leads a fantasy life and where all her dreams come true. After a life-changing medical diagnosis, Valancy rebels against her relatives and sets off on a new life -- leading her to discover freedom, friendship, and a love that she had never thought possible. In The Blue Castle (one of a few adult books that she wrote) Lucy Maud Montgomery created a novel that is inspiring, hopeful, and humorous -- it will have the reader swinging from sympathy and frustration to laughter and joy. And the glorious descriptions of Muskoka, in which the novel is set, make this truly a book to linger over. And to reread.
