Widely recognized as Willa Cather ’s greatest novel, My Ántonia is a soulful and rich portrait of a pioneer woman’s simple yet heroic life. The spirited daughter of Bohemian immigrants, Ántonia must adapt to a hard existence on the desolate prairies of the Midwest. Enduring childhood poverty, teenage seduction, and family tragedy, she eventually becomes a wife and mother on a Nebraska farm. A fictional record of how women helped forge the communities that formed a nation, My Ántonia is also a hauntingly eloquent celebration of the strength, courage, and spirit of America’s early pioneers.

評分本书包括《我的安东妮亚》和《死神来迎大主教》。 作品充满了乡土气息,这点在美国文学中是相当少见的。故事的背景地点是美国中西部大约新墨西哥一带。比如说《死神来迎大主教》就是因为美国吞并了得克萨斯后,天主教为了巩固这一带设立新主教区(墨西哥信仰天主教,但在美国是...
