1.My AntoniaMy Antonia
from Mariner Books
Price: $7.95

Customer Review:
I loved this story of a time and place that is gone. It's elegiac and fond, and beautifully written. Characters are sketched out sparsely but intact, and her phrasing made me gasp with pleasure at times.
But it has no plot. I cringe to think that children might be forced to read this. People... more info

3.Death Comes for the Archbishop (Willa Cather Scholarly Edition)Death Comes for the Archbishop (Willa Cather Scholarly Edition)
from University of Nebraska Press
Price: $50.40

Customer Review:
It is about the growing relationships among people with the ever changing and inspiring nature as the central character and it is written in a clear, simple yet very reflective language. Descriptions of nature in novels often tend to be too ornate and distracting, but in this book, the nature is... more info

I started "My Antonia" just to find out what this literary classic was about. I soon found myself captivated by a development of characters and their relationships.

5.[no image]O Pioneers! (A Keith Jennison book)

The taming of the frontier is a decidedly American experience. The toils of our forefathers as they struggled to prosper on the stubborn land of the West is an integral part of our history. O Pioneers! by Willa Cather takes this struggle and personifies it in one extraordinary woman, Alexandra... more info

ISBN 0-14-118104-4 This annotated Penguin edition of Willa Cather's Kunstlerroman is an invaluable resource for students & teachers providing information at first hand. The notes appear at the end of the book, so they do not take away from the enjoyment of reading Cather's prose.

7.[no image]The Professor's House
from Thorndike Press

Customer Review:
Willa Cather is one of the top five American writers. She gets little notice, it seems, today. I find that very strange, given the feminist movement in America. I've read three of her other books and this is the oddest, and most wonderful, or perhaps I forget how O Pioneers, Death Comes for the... more info

from Library of America
Price: $11.16

Customer Review:
Somehow, though I love to read,I had missed Willa Cather. I had already read and loved Jane Austen but it was not until I read "My Antonia" that I realized what I had missed all of these years. Willa Cather is truly a genius of the written word. To call her writing 'good' or her stories 'enjoyable'... more info

Did not think I as going to enjoy this book, it is very different to her other novels. However, I kept with it was not disappointed. I would recommend this book if you were already familiar with Willa Cather's work as it is strickingly different to My Antionia and Oh Pioneers! yet continues the... more info

from Signet Classics
Price: $4.95

Customer Review:
The Great American Novel was destined to be set on the American frontier,not in the closeness of Gatsby's mansion.By assuming a male voice in My Antonia, I believe that Willa Cather, a profoundly gifted writer who also happened to be a lesbian, was able to unleash her creative powers from the... more info
