O Pioneers!

O Pioneers! (Great Plains Trilogy, #1)O Pioneers! by Willa Cather

My rating: 2 of 5 stars


This was my first Willa Cather read. (I’m on a jag lately to read genres and authors I haven’t read much of before.)

The writing was good, describing the land and basic human problems of survival and legacy. I’m amazed at how often in stories that aren’t meaning to be Christian at all, the blessing of God upon Abraham to give him descendants and land keeps recurring. So it was here. The main problems are 1) Who will steward the land? and 2) Will we find love and an enduring legacy in the next generation?
