I've likely committed some kind of crime by going an entire decade without devoting an episode to Isao Takahata's 1979 Anne of Green Gables anime series, but here it is at long last. One of the greatest literary adaptations of all time, and maybe one the greatest television shows of all time. Dave Merrill and Patricia Gosselin chat with me about the legacy of Lucy Maude Montgomery's work, the idolatry of Anne Shirley in Japan, the anime's broadcast in French-speaking Canada and why its only English dub was produced in South Africa.

Send us a textWhen Edna O'Brien published her debut novel The Country Girls in 1960, she was branded a “Jezebel” in her native Ireland—but that didn't stop her from completing a poignant trilogy about a pair of friends coming of age in a world for which village life and convent school failed to prepare them. Despite initial backlash to her sexually frank depiction of young women's lives and desires, O'Brien's writing brought her acclaim and celebrity status—Vanity Fair dubbed her “the playgirl of the western world.” Novelist Edan Lepucki joins us to discuss the trilogy's timeless appeal and the complicated-but-endearing friendship of characters Kate Brady and Baba Brennan.Mentioned in this episode:The Country Girls trilogy by Edna O'BrienEdna O'Brien interview on BBC's “World Book Club”Time's Mouth by Edan LepuckiCalifornia by Edan LepuckiWoman No. 17 by Edan LepuckiMother's Before by Edan LepuckiItalics Mine Substack by Edan LepuckiAnne of Green Gables by L.M.

P.E.I. has long been a draw for fans of L.M. Montgomery and Anne of Green Gables. Now, online book influencers are bringing literary tours here — and Megan Follows, the actor who created an iconic version of Anne in the 1980s, is creating a documentary about the famous character.
The Parable of the Prodigal Son is really the parable of two brothers: one who's ruled by unchecked desire, and the other who's ruled by legalism and pride. I think a lot of us can resonate with both brothers. We feel torn between what we want to do and what we ought to do. But God designed these two things to be united within us! Using this parable as a framework, my friend Heidi White joins me again to talk about how we can not only do what's right but also desire what's right ... and find true freedom and joy as a result. The Divided Soul: Duty and Desire in Literature and Life by Heidi White Anne of Green Gables by L.M. Montgomery Uncle Tom's Cabin by Harriet Beecher Stowe Pride and Prejudice by Jane Austen The Betrothed by Alessandro Manzoni On Strong Women, we celebrate God's good design for women in every season of life. It's all part of a bigger mission: to help the Church be the Church—by celebrating what's good, resisting what's evil, restoring what's broken, and creating what's missing.

Send us a textWelcome to Stories Come to Life. I am your host, Kathryn Lopez Luker. The summer I turned twelve years old, I was so sad when I finished all of the Anne of Green Gables books that were readily available at that time. This was in the 1970s, well before the resurgence of Anne's popularity. But I LOVED L. M. Montgomery's writing, and I longed to read other things she had written. So, I looked in the tall card catalog of the Salt Lake City Public Library and found one more book written by L. M. Montgomery. It was called The Story Girl, and the card catalog entry said there was “one copy in Old and Rare.” Several times that summer, I took the city bus by myself across town to the main library and crept down the old cement stairs to the bottom floor of the building where the Old and Rare department was housed. While the temperature soared outside, I spent a couple of hours every day reading The Story Girl in the cool library basement. Since then, I have read many other stories by Ms. Montgomery, but none enchanted me more than that old and rare copy I was so pleased to discover. Here are chapters 4, 5, and 6, of The Story Girl. In today's episode, you will hear about Peter's first time in church and his experiences there, as well as a contest to see who can gather the most money for a most worthy cause: to fund a school library!Now sit back, relax, and listen to this story come to life.Listening to audiobooks really does count as reading, and there's no better way to relax than to hear Stories Come to Life! Let me know what you think! Please send an email to me at kluker@marshallpl.org. I'd love to hear from you!

Tonight, we'll read the 29th chapter of “Anne of Green Gables”, the classic 1908 novel by Lucy Maud Montgomery. This chapter is titled “An Epoch of Anne's Life”. In the last episode, Anne and her friends reenact the poem The Lady of Shalott by floating Anne down the river in a flatboat. She pretends to be the doomed lily maid, but the boat begins to leak and sinks. Anne is forced to climb onto the bridge supports and wait for help. Gilbert Blythe happens by in a rowboat and rescues her. Though still upset with him for past teasing, Anne reluctantly accepts the ride. Gilbert tries to reconcile and apologizes, but Anne coldly rebuffs him. Despite the dramatic mishap, Anne later admits the adventure was romantic. — read by 'N' — Sign up for Snoozecast+ to get expanded, ad-free access by going to snoozecast.com/plus!

Send us a textWelcome to Stories Come to Life. I am your host, Kathryn Lopez Luker. Lucy Maud Montgomery, who wrote Anne of Green Gables, also wrote a delightful book about Sara Stanley, better known as the Story Girl. Told from the perspective of Beverley, one of two brothers who have come to stay on a farm with their aunts and uncles and cousins while their father is away, this book takes place on Prince Edward Island in Canada. In this first episode, we meet Felix and Beverley and get to know some of the rest of the characters. Felix and Beverley's father was raised in this old homestead, and all their lives, the boys have heard stories of the old orchard where they each have a special tree, the deep well with its little blue cup to drink from, and other tales that have become part of their heritage. Even though the boys have heard of these places all their lives, the reality is even better than their imaginations. Best of all are their cousins, including the Story Girl, who promise wonderful adventures and friendships.Now sit back, relax, and listen to this story come to life.Listening to audiobooks really does count as reading, and there's no better way to relax than to hear Stories Come to Life!

It is my privilege to meander today with my friend Cheryl Marita, and we explore her book “Touching the Veil: End of Life Stories Through the Eyes of a Nurse.”This podcast looks at joy in the everyday, and Cheryl's work as a hospice nurse does that for her… it brings joy to her everyday, that's clear. After a career spanning almost 60 years, and at 79 years of age, she continues to work as a hospice nurse two days a week because not doing so, well, it's just not possible for her. In her book, she talks about the beginnings of her career, in the early 1960s, and her entry into supporting people to their natural death at a time when death meant "failure" to the medical professionals.

Tonight, we'll read the 28th chapter of “Anne of Green Gables”, the classic 1908 novel by Lucy Maud Montgomery. This chapter is titled “An Unfortunate Lily Maid” In the last episode, Marilla returns home one spring evening thrilled by the season's promise, only to discover there's no fire, no tea—and no Anne. After fuming in the kitchen and questioning Matthew, she fetches a candle in Anne's room and finds her hiding tearfully among the pillows. Anne confesses she spent her chicken-money on a peddler's hair dye, hoping for raven-black locks but ending up with a ghastly green mane. When daily washings fail, Marilla decrees the only cure is to cut Anne's hair off, leaving her shingled head looking “like a scarecrow.” In the aftermath, Anne resolves to be good instead of vain, and Marilla—even amid her headaches—admits she rather enjoys Anne's lively chatter. — read by 'N' — Sign up for Snoozecast+ to get expanded, ad-free access by going to snoozecast.com/plus!

Vivien Wong is the co-founder of Little Moons, the cult brand that transformed a niche Japanese dessert into a household name. A bold disruptor in the global ice cream market, Vivien is a finalist for the 2025 Veuve Clicquot Bold Woman Award. In this episode, we explore Vivien's remarkable journey from helping in her mother's bakery to founding one of the UK's most talked-about brands. She reflects on the importance of female role models, what starting her own business has brought her personally and professionally, and how one viral social media moment can transform a company's success overnight. From navigating Little Moons' TikTok explosion to the importance of integrity in company culture, Vivien shares the lessons she learned from scaling her values-led business. In this episode, we dive into her experiences working with family, what being woman in business means today, and what awards like Veuve Clicquot are doing to raise the visibility of female success. Vivien believes that creating opportunities for women to connect, learn, and invest together is key to building collective power. An audacious champion of female success and self-belief, her insights offer an honest, hopeful roadmap for founders and future leaders alike. Much like Madame Clicquot herself. Widowed at the age of only 27, she took control of her own destiny and became one of the first modern entrepreneurs. Book for Emmeline recommendation: Anne of Green Gables by L.M. Montgomery For more about the Veuve Clicquot Bold Woman awards and shortlist, click here.

Tonight, we'll read the 27th chapter of “Anne of Green Gables”, the classic 1908 novel by Lucy Maud Montgomery. This chapter is titled “Vanity and the Vexation of Spirit” In the previous chapter, Anne struggles to adjust to everyday life after the excitement of the concert. She finds ordinary days dull in comparison, lamenting that her experiences have perhaps spoiled her for simpler pleasures. School returns to normal, though minor quarrels persist among classmates stemming from tensions at the concert. Anne and Diana discuss growing older, imagination, and the trials of writing compositions. Anne enthusiastically shares a dramatic story she wrote, prompting the creation of a girls' story-writing club. Although Marilla disapproves of this pastime as foolish, Anne insists they always include morals in their stories. Despite Marilla's skepticism, Anne remains hopeful about her own personal growth, inspired by Mrs. Allan's past imperfections and kindness. Learn more about your ad choices.
