Editorial Reviews

"The unity of Miss Cather's design, the clarity and distinction of this book, should put it beside her first great success, My Ántonia." —The Times Literary Supplement (London)

From the Publisher

"The Willa Cather Scholarly Edition of Lucy Gayheart provides readers with a fresh and insightful look at Cather’s penultimate, and often undervalued, novel."—Emily J. Rau, Great Plains Quarterly
