From her haunting first story, "Peter," the tale of a Bohemian immigrant who brought his violin to the raw western frontier, to her posthumously published "The Best Years," the stories included here span the 50 years of Cather's writing life. In these tales of pioneers & farmers, artists & youthful lovers, immigrants & their striving children, she creates both a new, never-surpassed portrait of the land & people of the American West & a lively & contemporary picture of life in eastern cities. Many of her finest stories, among them "Coming, Aphrodite!" (a New York tale of passion & ambition) & the subtly constructed "Old Mrs. Harris," are unfamiliar to most readers. Her earliest, uncollected stories are steeped in memories of prairie childhood. "On the Divide," "The Enchanted Bluff," "Eric Hermannson's Soul," & others contain many of the themes of her later work, evoking the loneliness & hardship as well as the beauty & challenge of pioneer life "on the bright edges of the world." In the stories of "Youth and the Bright Medusa" (1920), which includes "The Sculptor's Funeral," "The Diamond Mine," & the well-known "Paul's Case," artists & other sensitive spirits struggle to preserve their integrity in a society ruled by convention & routine. "Obscure Destinies" (1932) presents 3 moving tales set in the western landscapes Cather loved. Her characters are endowed w/ some of the meditative solidity found in the portraits of Rembrandt, like the old farmer in "Neighbor Rosicky" who has only "one tap root that goes down deep." "The Old Beauty and Others" (1948), published shortly after Cather's death, includes "The Best Years," a Nebraska story that has a mournful charm unlike anything else she wrote. Cather's distinctive, lyrical prose can be found not only in her fiction but also in her "occasional" pieces: an appreciation of Sarah Orne Jewett, luminous reminiscences of Mrs. James Fields & her house in Boston, an account of meeting Flaubert's niece in Aix-les-Bains. Her critical essays, such as "The Novel Démeublé" & "On the Art of Fiction," which appear in "Not Under Forty" (1936), & her reviews of authors from Mark Twain to Frank Norris, as well as her appraisals of her own work, cast a discerning light on the creative role of the artist. This volume also contains Cather's first novella, "Alexander's Bridge" (1912), "My Mortal Enemy" (1926), a powerful novella in which a strong-willed woman brings about her own ruin, and Cather's only book of poetry, "April Twilights & Other Poems" (1933). * LIBRARY OF AMERICA, a nonprofit publisher, is dedicated to preserving America's best and most significant writing in handsome, enduring volumes, featuring authoritative texts.
