New Essays on My Antonia

By Marilee Lindemann, Miles Orvell, Elizabeth Ammons, et al.

Book Overview

My Antonia is undoubtedly Willa Cather's most famous novel. It is also her most autobiographical novel and her most aesthetically complex; it can be enjoyed both for its simple, pure prose and for its literary depth. The essays in this volume place the novel in the context of American literary history, African-American music, and Southern writing, and offer illuminating ways of reading Cather's best-known work.
