“Nineteenth-century pastoral America comes to life in this celebrated novel by Willa Cather, which is celebrating its centenary. The third book in what is known as the author’s prairie trilogy, My Ántonia is considered Cather’s masterpiece. The novel, which was published in 1918, follows the life of a young immigrant, Ántonia Shimerda, through the eyes of Jim Burden, her more privileged neighbor who escapes Midwestern life to become a New York lawyer.”
