For the first time in Russian, one of the most famous "adult" novels by Canadian writer Lucy Maud Montgomery, author of the popular books about Anne of Green Gables!
On Prince Edward Island, the honorary head of the two ancient families, the Darcys and the Penhallowes, was unanimously recognized as Aunt Becky. This eighty-five-year-old woman knew all the secrets and was used to saying only what she thought, regardless of the feelings of others. One day, Aunt Becky gathered representatives of both clans to announce her last will. Of course, everyone attended the meeting, since there was no person on the island who did not dream of obtaining her ancient pitcher - the main relic of the Darcys and the Penhallowes, surrounded by a romantic aura. However, Aunt Becky's will left everyone bewildered, and most importantly, it disturbed the peaceful life on the island and set in motion amazing stories that contained betrayal, mercy, friendship, envy, and, of course, true love.
