June Book Club- My Ántonia (Location TBD)

Details

Inspired by my recent trip through Nebraska, this June we will be discussing My Ántonia by rootin' tootin' LGBT American west author Willa Cather! Read about her life here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Willa_Cather

Goodreads summary:

Through Jim Burden's 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 literature's most beguiling characters: the Russian brothers plagued by memories of a fateful sleigh ride, Antonia's desperately homesick father and self-indulgent mother, and the coy Lena Lingard. Holding the pastoral society's heart, of course, is the bewitching, free-spirited Antonia.
