Willa Cather's fifth novel. Originally published in 1922. Awarded the Pulitzer Prize in 1923. According to Wikipedia: "Willa Sibert Cather (December 7, 1873[1] April 24, 1947) was an American author who grew up in Nebraska. She is best known for her depictions of frontier life on the Great Plains in novels such as O Pioneers!, My Ántonia, and The Song of the Lark...Cather was celebrated by critics like H.L. Mencken for writing in plainspoken language about ordinary people. When novelist Sinclair Lewis won the Nobel Prize in Literature, he paid homage to her by saying that Cather should have won the honor."
