Description
This Prestwick House Literary Touchstone Classic includes a glossary and readers notes to help the modern reader contend with Cathers allusions and vocabulary.
My Ántonia, Willa Cathers vivid portrayal of immigrant
life on the American prairie during the nineteenth
century, has been a favorite since it first appeared in 1918. The harshyet forgivingland, the growth and maturity of Jim Burden, the narrator, the intriguing characters, and the force of Ántonias strength all combine to make this novel exceptional.
Cathers style perfectly depicts the sparseness of the prairie and the desolation of the immigrants existence in winter and comes alive when the glory and beauty of spring emerge.
Whether you see it as a love story, an indelible portrait of a wise, enduring female character, or a coming-of-age novel, My Ántonia is deserving of its respected place in American literature.
