Differentiated book- It has a historical context with research of the time-Rilla, that of Ingleside published in 1921 is the eighth book in the Anne of Green Gables series, written by Canadian Lucy Maud Montgomery, although it was the sixth that the author wrote. In this novel, the focus is on a central character, Rilla Blythe, the youngest daughter of Ana and Gilbert. It is written in a more serious tone than its predecessors, since the story takes place during the years of the First World War, in which both Ana's children and those of her neighbors and friends, will have to go to fight at the front. Interestingly, Ingleside's Rilla is the only Canadian novel written from a woman's perspective of World War I by a writer at the time. Almost a decade has passed since the end of the previous book, and Ana's children have grown up, all except Rilla.Who at fifteen is a young coquette, with a charming smile and irrepressible enthusiasm, whose only hope is to go to her first dance at the Cuatro Vientos lighthouse. Ana and especially Gilbert, are concerned about the lack of expectations of their youngest daughter and the fact that their only concern is having fun. But the world of dreams and illusions of Rilla, begins to crack the same night of the dance.
