Chronicles of Avonlea Audiobook CD Set
Lucy Maud Montgomery
Audio CD
(St. Clare Audio, March 15, 2016)
5 Audio CD's - 6 Hours and 7 Minutes. A collection of 12 short stories by L.M. Montgomery famed author of the Anne of Green Gables Series. Chronicles of Avonlea features some of our favorite characters, but mostly highlights vignettes of other inhabitants of Avonlea, and the surrounding area. We meet some old friends and many new ones from "The Island" in stories both sweet and poignant. An old lady finds happiness in being a "fairy godmother" to a young music teacher; two lovers will not speak for fifteen years, but still love each other dearly; a woman-hater is quarantined with a man-hater; and other anecdotes of country town life are drawn by the delicate and sure hand of the beloved Montgomery. Stories include: "The Hurrying of Ludovic", "Aunt Olivia's Beau", "Quarantine at Alexander Abraham's", "Pa Sloane's Purchase", "The Miracle at Carmody", and more. A delightful read, and a welcome addition to the beloved tales of Avonlea! Our CDs are packaged in premium DVD cases with CD labeling printed right on the CD in full color. We do not use paper stick-on labels, these tend to peel off over time and can really jam up car CD players and computers. We chose to use DVD cases for our CD sets, as we have found they hold up better in shipping and in regular usage than the typical CD jewel case. Please note: All recordings we offer on CD are produced with recordings from Librivox, public domain works recorded by volunteers. We at St. Clare Audio would like to thank the volunteers for their gift of offering their work to the public domain. Also, being public domain works they are available for download at Librivox. St. Clare Audio's niche is providing them in ready-to-purchase CD sets, for those who cannot download, or have not the desire or time to do so, as well as the benefit of a nice case and professionally produced CDs.
