81. L.M. Montgomery And Canadian Culture By Deirdre Baker
    LM Montgomery and canadian culture Irene Gammel and Elizabeth Epperly. Universityof Toronto Press. xviii, 268. LM Montgomery and canadian culture.  
    http://www.utpjournals.com/product/utq/701/culture102.html
    
    Extractions: Brief references to Alice Munro, Margaret Laurence, and Jane Urquhart suggest the impact Montgomery's works had on these writers; and Frank Davey explores the connection between Kim Campbell's public image and Montgomery's Anne. In an interview, Sharon J. Hamilton, author of My Name's Not Susie: A Life Transformed by Literacy, discusses how Anne became such a powerful role model for her that, ultimately, she changed the trajectory of Hamilton's life as a foster?child. Whether she's interpreted as subversive or conservative, this collection leaves no doubt that Montgomery does indeed have a significant place in Canadian culture - whether high, low, or `pop' - and that, conversely, Canadian culture has a significant place in her writings. And it's refreshing that there's enough scepticism in the volume to mitigate the more reverential `Montgomery says' element. It seems fitting, too, that this compilation of literary criticism, personal `reflection pieces,' and journalism should make a very readable collection, likely to be as enjoyable for Montgomery's educated popular audience as it is for her scholarly critics.
