آنتونیا من

Through Jim Burdens endearing, smitten voice, we revisit the remarkable vicissitudes of immigrant life in the Nebraska heartland, with all its insistent bonds. Guiding the way are some of literatures most beguiling characters: the Russian brothers plagued by memories of a fateful sleigh ride, Antonias desperately homesick father and self-indulgent mother, and the coy Lena Lingard. Holding the pastoral societys heart, of course, is the bewitching, free-spirited Antonia.
