Together they share childhoods spent in a new world.
Jim Burden recounts his memories of Antonia Shimerda, whose family settle in Nebraska from Bohemia.
My Antonia depicts the pioneering period of European settlement on the tall-grass prairie of the American midwest, with its beautiful yet terrifying landscape, rich ethnic mix of immigrants and native-born Americans, and communities who share life\'s joys and sorrows.
My Antonia is Willa Cather\'s masterpiece about 19th-century Nebraskan pioneers.
