Product Description:
*Storm and Dissonance, is a collection of inter-related essays that explore how and why Montgomery's 'gentle landscapes and optimistic stories contain undercurrents of anger, malice, relentless gossip, obsession, and violence' (pp. 4-5). Brilliantly edited and introduced by Island-born Anthropologist Jean Mitchell, the essays areclustered into five lively and related conversations, each enriching the others and also our general understanding of Montgomery's complex ways ofcoding experiences and perceptions. This is a must-read for anyone interested in Montgomery's artistry and in her creation of cultural images that resonate more than one hundred years later. Dr. Elizabeth Rollins Epperly
