The Song of the Lark by Willa Cather

5.0

My Antonia was one of my favorite books for years and years. I have come to love "The Song of the Lark" even more - even though the story has some thin spots, and there are a couple of really jarring bits of prose, I like the picture that this book paints about becoming an artist. I always feel like Willa Cather writes people so sensitively that even the peripheral characters could walk out of the books into their own stories, and this book is a great example of that
