One of America’s greatest women writers, Willa Cather established her talent and her reputation with this extraordinary novel—the first of her books set on the Nebraska frontier. A tale of the prairie land encountered by America’s Swedish, Czech, Bohemian, and French immigrants, as well as a story of how the land challenged them, changed them, and, in some cases, defeated them, Cather’s novel is a uniquely American epic.
Alexandra Bergson, a young Swedish immigrant girl who inherits her father’s farm and must transform it from raw prairie into a prosperous enterprise, is the first of Cather’s great heroines—all of them women of strong will and an even stronger desire to overcome adversity and succeed. But the wild land itself is an equally important character in Cather’s books, and her descriptions of it are so evocative, lush, and moving that they provoked writer Rebecca West to say of her: “The most sensuous of writers, Willa Cather builds her imagined world almost as solidly as our five senses build the universe around us.”
Willa Cather, perhaps more than any other American writer, was able to re-create the real drama of the pioneers, capturing for later generations a time, a place, and a spirit that has become part of our national heritage.

為何我的眼裏常含淚水,因為我對這土地愛得深沉。質樸的語言歌唱勞動,歌唱生活,和土地結下的緣分在陽光下跳動,在稻香裏綿延。人永遠目送著往事離去,它們飄得越遠,越讓人追憶,積極的主鏇律中永遠夾雜著一絲這樣的惆悵和哀婉。書中描寫瞭三個人的肉體死亡和一個人的精神死亡。Alaxzandra對Emil和Marie持否定態度,讓我覺得她未免不近人情,但是Carl的勸慰非常暖心,對Frank的描寫讓人意外,三個人都沒有惡意,卻成就瞭彼此的悲劇。可能是剛看完Lolita的原因,覺得直白瞭一點,主題化瞭一點,有某些地方瓊瑤化瞭一點。
