Synopsis
A guide to reading "My âAntonia" with a critical and appreciative mind encouraging analysis of plot, style, form, and structure. Also includes background on the author's life and times, sample tests, term paper suggestions, and a reading list., This novel about the friendship between two Nebraska children, Jim Burden and Antonia Shimerda is considered Cather's masterpiece. The fortunes of the two families are opposed: the Burdens thrive while the Shimerdas decline, a downfall that culminates in the suicide of Antonia's father, which forces the girl to work in the fields and then as a servant. Throughout all her trials, Antonia's strength, humor, and goodness sustain her and her family--and Jim, for whom she is a lifelong inspiration and mentor. Willa Cather called this novel "the best thing I've done."

Publisher's Notes

Industry Reviews
"Can one name another American novel whose emotional quality is so true, so warm, so human as that of 'My Antonia'?"
Clifton Fadiman
"No romantic novel ever written in America, by man or woman, is one half so beautiful as 'My Antonia'. It is the finest thing of its sort ever done in America."
