The Song of the Lark by Willa Cather
4.0
I first read this years ago, and on this reread, I had flashes of familiarity, but just flashes. So it felt mostly like a brand new book.
Cather is one of those authors that sucks you right in to her world. Her use of language just pours right over you. I loved Thea--strong and determined, she's not always nice, but she's always interesting. The portrait of an artist is a fascinating one, made even more interesting after learning that Thea is based on a real early 20th century opera star, Olive Fremstad.
Should be a great discussion for book club!
