So Big by Edna Ferber
5.0

Oh, to have finally read this one! My first Ferber. What took so long? Now to gather my thoughts for a formal review. Early-twentieth century Chicago literature is a diamond mine. This one is joining other favorites in that little drawer. Cather’s brilliance of land and place meets Fitzgerald’s eye for character and sensibility for authenticity, or waste. My, my!
