| book description |

A Pulitzer Prize-winning author's ""masterpiece"" (Library of America) and a National Endowment for the Arts ""Big Read"" pick. ""No romantic novel ever written in America, by man or woman, is one half so beautiful as My Ántonia.""--H.L. Menken In celebration of the 250th anniversary of the United States, HarperCollins is proud to present this library of American classics drawn from our storied catalog. Willa Cather's powerful, heartfelt novel is the unforgettable story of an immigrant woman's life on the hardscrabble Nebraska plains. I know so many women who have kept all the things that she had lost, but whose inner glow has faded. Whatever else was gone, Ántonia had not lost the fire of life. Through Jim Burden's affectionate reminiscence of his childhood friend, the free-spirited Ántonia Shimerda, a larger, uniquely American portrait emerges, both of a community struggling with unforgiving terrain and of a woman who, amid great hardship, stands as a timeless inspiration. With a Foreword by Kathleen Norris, the award-winning poet, writer, and author of many New York Times bestselling books, including Dakota: A Spiritual Geography.
