My Antonia
By Willa Cather
- pgs: 280
This is claimed to be “Cather’s masterful portrait of prairie culture” from multiple character’s standpoints. This novel tells of the trials of these characters to live and to work in the new country that had been founded. Characters range from immigrants from different areas, scoundrels, believers and westerners. The story tells of the interactions of these people with each other and with the land. The story flows very easily and uses wonderful imagery. The author’s style is one that is easy to read and imaginative.
