The Penderwicks
The Prairie Trilogy
Willa Cather's "Prairie Trilogy" Consists of three books, O Pioneers! (1913), The Song of the Lark (1915) and My Ántonia (1918). All three occur at different locations on the Great Plains during their pioneer phase, and vibrantly bring that world to life. All three explore different approaches to ambition, each leading to different outcomes. Combined they represent a multifaceted meditation on a topic critical to the rapidly changing circumstances of the early 20th century and perhaps close to Willa Cather's own heart. The questions are still important in our own rapidly changing world.
Note: If you read one, read all three, and read them in order. Stopping in the middle is too haunting.
