Set in rural Nebraska, Willa Cather’s My Ántonia is both the intricate
story of a powerful friendship and a brilliant portrayal of the lives
of rural pioneers in the late-nineteenth century.
Part of the Macmillan Collector’s Library, a series of stunning,
clothbound, pocket-sized classics with gold-foiled edges and ribbon
markers. These beautiful books make perfect gifts or a treat for any
book lover. This edition has an afterword by Bridget Bennett and
original illustrations by W. T. Benda.
Ántonia and her family are from Bohemia and they must endure real
hardship and loss to establish a new home in America. But Ántonia is
never broken by adversity, and her strength and love of life stays with
her childhood friend Jim for years to come, even as he leaves home to
study and pursue his career. Told through Jim’s eyes, My Ántonia is a
rich and beautiful novel about childhood and growing up, different
cultures and the lure of home.
