Montgomery's Anne of Green Gables series, published in 1917, chronicling Anne Shirley's early married life with Gilbert Blythe as they move to their "dream house" in Four Winds Harbor. The novel focuses on their new life, new friends like Captain Jim and Miss Cornelia Bryant, and the challenges of adulthood, including the birth and tragic loss of their first child, Joyce. It explores themes of love, friendship, and building a life together, marking Anne's transition from girlhood to maturity.
