The Prairie Trilogy collects three of Willa Cather’s seminal novels of life and love on the prairie in one enthralling volume. All three novels feature strong female protagonists like O Pioneers’ Alexandra Bergsons, who inherits her family’s ailing Nebraska farm, and turns it into a successful enterprise before passion and love intervene. The Song of the Lark follows young Thea Kronborg’s growth from a provincial midwesterner to an acclaimed international opera singer. And in My Antonia, the daughter of Bohemian immigrants inspires and captivates as she perseveres despite tragic circumstances.
