I haven't read it - yet - but that reminds me of two other multivolume stories - "Anne of Green Gables" (a Canadian author) in six volumes, and the "Little House on the Prairie" books - Laura Ingalls Wilder's life story. She has six?seven? I forget now how many in the 'set', but there is an additional one which sees her married and "On the Way Home" to where she spent the rest of her life. There's also a songbook with the tunes her father used to play on his violin.
