Eleven early stories set between the Nebraska plains and the studios of the East. A lonely Norwegian squats by Rattlesnake Creek in On the Divide; a farm wife hears Wagner again after decades on the prairie; a sculptor’s body is shipped home to a Kansas town that never understood him; and a Pittsburgh schoolboy makes a desperate flight to New York in Paul’s Case.
Cather’s apprentice fiction, already showing the prairie and the pull of art that would drive My Ántonia. Download the free EPUB.
