Specifically, each volume contains both full reviews and excerpts from reviews that appeared in newspapers and weekly and monthly periodicals, generally within a few months of the publication of the work concerned. There is an introductory historical overview by the volume editor, as well as checklists of additional reviews located but not quoted. This volume offers a broad sampling of the immediate reaction to the appearance of Willa Cather's volumes of poetry, fiction, and criticism. While most reviews are from the major national journals and newspapers in major cities, some reviews show the responses in Nebraska, New Mexico, Quebec and other locales where Cather's works are set. The reviews are often flattering, sometimes angry, sometimes so careful in their dissection of Cather's work that they are worthy of study themselves. This collection shows forty-five years of intelligent attention to one author's life's work.\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003eIntroduction\u003cbr\u003e April Twilights, 1903, 1923, 1933\u003cbr\u003e The Troll Garden, 1905\u003cbr\u003e Alexander's Bridges, 1912\u003cbr\u003e O Pioneers!, 1913\u003cbr\u003e The Song of the Lark, 1915\u003cbr\u003e My Ántonia, 1918\u003cbr\u003e Youth and the Bright Medusa, 1920\u003cbr\u003e One of Ours, 1922\u003cbr\u003e A Lost Lady, 1923\u003cbr\u003e The Professor's House, 1925\u003cbr\u003e My Mortal Enemy, 1926\u003cbr\u003e Death Comes for the Archbishop, 1927\u003cbr\u003e Shadows on the Rock, 1931\u003cbr\u003e Obscure Destinies, 1932\u003cbr\u003e Lucy Gayheart, 1935\u003cbr\u003e Not Under Forty, 1936\u003cbr\u003e Sapphira and the Slave Girl, 1940\u003cbr\u003e The Old Beauty and Others, 1948.\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003eSubject Areas: Literary studies: fiction, novelists \u0026amp; prose writers [\u003ca title=\"See our other books on Literary studies: fiction, novelists \u0026amp; prose writers\" href=\"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/search?q=%22Literary%20studies:%20fiction,%20novelists%20\u0026amp;%20prose%20writers%20%5BDSK%5D%22\"\u003eDSK\u003c\/a\u003e], Literary studies: poetry \u0026amp; poets [\u003ca title=\"See our other books on Literary studies: poetry \u0026amp; poets\" href=\"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/search?q=%22Literary%20studies:%20poetry%20\u0026amp;%20poets%20%5BDSC%5D%22\"\u003eDSC\u003c\/a\u003e], Literary studies: general [\u003ca title=\"See our other books on Literary studies: general\" href=\"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/search?q=%22Literary%20studies:%20general%20%5BDSB%5D%22\"\u003eDSB\u003c\/a\u003e]\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\r\n\u003c\/font\u003e","brand":"Cambridge University Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46006487253272,"sku":"9780521112093","price":35.59,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0730\/2037\/5320\/products\/9780521112093i_02d4f3d5-a1c7-46f7-a0d7-b241fc453f6c.jpg?v=1691371241","url":"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/products\/willa-cather-the-contemporary-reviews-paperback-9780521112093","provider":"Freshly Printed Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
