Welcome to Willa Cather's My Ántonia. In this classic edition of this novel, first published in 1918, we are proud to offer you the best Kindle edition of this literary classic featuring one of the most acclaimed classics of the 20th century.

My Ántonia is considered one of the best works of Pulitzer Prize winner Willa Cather. It is the final book of her "prairie trilogy" of novels, preceded by O Pioneers! and The Song of the Lark.

My Ántonia was enthusiastically received in 1918 when it was first published and placed Cather in the forefront of women novelists. Today, it is considered as her first masterpiece. Cather was praised for bringing the American West to life and making it personally interesting.

It brought place forward almost as if it were one of the characters, while at the same time playing upon the universality of the emotions, which in turn promoted regional American literature as a valid part of mainstream literature. My Ántonia is clearly an elegy to those families who built new lives west of the Mississippi River and highlights the role of women pioneers in particular.

My Ántonia is a selection of The Big Read, The National Endowment for the Arts' community-wide reading program.

Enjoy, as you read this Mogul Classics edition of Willa Cather's My Ántonia.

Though this was written in a time well before me, and in a place I have never been, Willa captures the simple essence of being human so well that I recognized it as if it were me experiencing it. I don’t know how else to explain it. The writing is beautiful, and has a timeless quality. It is a book I think that you will read once, and then again more slowly.

An incredibly well written book

I first read this book many decades ago, so long ago that I had forgotten the story line. This rereading proved to me why this is truly a classic of American literature. The images and characters that Cather created are full of life and beauty.

If you have an interest in the settlement of Nebraska, perhaps are from the Midwest and over 50 years of age this story should resonate with you. The female author writes in the voice of a male and that didn't always ring true with me.

I must have had an abridged edition of this book that I lost so bought ebook and it seemed to NEVER end.

I enjoyed the descriptions of the landscapes and characters in the first of the book but as it drug on and on and on I found it a less enjoyable journey.

If you want a slow read—like watching grass grow o. The prairie then this book is for you.

Willa Cather is one of the great American writers of all time. She transports us across time and space to prairie life and all the hardships it entails.
