My Ántonia (first published 1918) is considered one of the greatest novels by American writer Willa Cather. My Ántonia, pronounced with the accent on the first syllable of "Ántonia," is the final book of the "prairie trilogy" of novels by Cather, a list that also includes O Pioneers! and The Song of the LarkMy Ántonia follows an orphaned boy, Jim, and a Bohemian immigrant child, Ántonia, upon their introduction to Nebraska as pioneers. The novel depicts the struggles and successes of the pair throughout their lifetime. The first edition of My Ántonia in 1918 opened with an introduction depicting a conversation on a train that was later cut from the novel in a revised 1926 edition by Houghton Mifflin

Descripción de contraportada

Antonia Shimerda--Bohemian immigrant and embodiment of the American myth--has come to the Nebraska Prairie with her family to carve out a better way of life on the virgin plain. But even for the most seasoned frontiersmen, farming is a constant battle against unheard of dangers an unyielding soil. For the untried Shimerdas it is a tragic quest, were it not for the inner triumphs of Antonia.
