This early work by Lucy Maud Montgomery was originally published in 1931 and we are now republishing it with a brand new introductory biography. 'A Tangled Web' is a tale that follows a family through a year of heartbreak and hilarity in a scramble to acquire a family heirloom. Lucy Maud Montgomery was born on 30th November 1874, New London, in the Canadian province of Prince Edward Island. Her mother, Clara Woolner (Macneil), died before Lucy reached the age of two and so she was raised by her maternal grandparents in a family of wealthy Scottish immigrants. In 1908 Montgomery produced her first full-length novel, titled 'Anne of Green Gables'. It was an instant success, and following it up with several sequels, Montgomery became a regular on the best-seller list and an international household name. Montgomery died in Toronto on 24th April 1942.

This more of an adult novel. It's not in the same vein as Anne of Green Gables, which was written as a serial for church magazines. It covers the lives of the Dark clan over the course of a year after the clean matriarch, Aunt Becky, dies. It's a very entertaining look at life on PEI during the 1920s. This isn't modern fiction so don't be surprised that there's not much in the way of partying and love making. It's very conservative setting and has a few lines that are considered racist. Look at it as a lesson in why this kind of speech is offensive. I'm a big fan of the writer and have read all of her fiction, some of her diaries. Definitely read this book if you're a fan of her more adult oriented fiction, like the Blue Castle.Product details

Did not bother to finish reading it.
A great story about an extended family and the misunderstandings that allow them to grow as people and as family. I loved it!
It was a story of a family clan and in it other stories small stories of some of its members tangled within. Funny too.
Fantastic. Different than any Anne of Green Gables story I have read, but this book was engaging, fast-paced, and filled with delightful characters. A new Lucy Maud Montgomery favorite.
This must be a book with one of the biggest cast of characters I've ever read - and all of them are either a Penhallow or a Dark. But if you get past the initial confusion its a lovely story about families and how difficult love is, no matter how young or old you are.
I was amused by the many character studies in the book and the problems resolved by the jug! An interesting book!
If you are expecting the usual L.M. Montgomery story with feisty young girls having adventures and meeting boys etc, you will be disappointed in this book. If you, on the other hand, can free youself from this expectation, you are in for a treat. The story is about a coveted heirloom, the Dark jug. The head of the Dark and Penhallow clans, Aunt Becky, dies, and leaves everyone wondering who will inherit the Dark jug. However, her will stipulates that no one will know until a year after her death. This year brings about many changes in the clan, and the story follows several clan members, irrespective of wether they want the jug or not. At times it is touching, at times it is wickedly funny.
My only caveat is that if you have problems with pet cats being killed, you might struggle a bit with one of the last chapters.
