My Ántonia de Willa Cather

My Ántonia: Penguin Modern Classics

Autor Willa Cather
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 3 oct 2018
The final novel in the Great Plains trilogy, this is a celebration of the American midwest with Cather's strongest heroine at its heart
Jim and Ántonia meets as children in the wide open plains of Nebraska at the end of the nineteenth century. Jim leaves for college and a career in the east, while Ántonia stays at home, dedicating herself to her farm and family. As the years roll by, Jim will come to view Ántonia as the embodiment of the prairie itself - tough, spirited and enduring, despite the hardness and loneliness of pioneer life. Willa Cather's beautiful novel is a celebration of the Nebraskan prairie she loved she much, and a powerful depiction of a pivotal era in the making of America.

Notă biografică

Willa Cather was born in Virginia in 1873 and moved to Nebraska, with its wide open plains and immigrant farming communities, at the age of nine. This landscape would deeply affect her later writing. She attended university and became a journalist and teacher in Pittsburgh, and then a magazine editor in New York. Her first major novel,O Pioneers!, appeared in 1913 and was followed by two more in her prairie trilogy,The Song of the LarkandMy Ántonia, as well as her masterpieceDeath Comes for the Archbishop.She lived with the editor Edith Lewis for thirty-nine years until her death in 1947.

Recenzii

One of the warmest, most quietly rousing books that I know; a clear-eyed salute to the resilience of the human spirit and the innate hardiness of the immigrants who came across the ocean to start afresh in the golden west
No romantic novel ever written in America, by man or woman, is one half so beautiful asMy Ántonia
Cather was the first great American novelist to make the West - the real West, not the stuff of pulp fiction - her theme. She makes you see, smell, and feel the prairie
