Around her, Cather builds a world of immigrant families, harsh seasons, economic risk, emotional restraint, and private longing.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFirst published in 1913, \u003cem\u003eO Pioneers!\u003c\/em\u003e was the novel that established Cather's mature voice and began the great prairie sequence that would continue with \u003cem\u003eThe Song of the Lark\u003c\/em\u003e and \u003cem\u003eMy Ántonia\u003c\/em\u003e. The book is both regional and mythic: a story of the American frontier, but also a study of vocation, sacrifice, and the strange bond between human beings and the country they try to make habitable. Project Gutenberg's subject listings identify the novel with farm life, women pioneers, women farmers, women immigrants, and Swedish Americans, all central to the book's discovery frame. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFor readers of American classics, prairie fiction, immigrant fiction, women's literary fiction, and early twentieth-century historical fiction, \u003cem\u003eO Pioneers!\u003c\/em\u003e remains one of Cather's essential works: spare, luminous, unsentimental, and deeply rooted in the moral and emotional life of the Great Plains.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 128\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.44 x 9 x 6 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e April 03, 2018\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"Books by splitShops","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47406027833522,"sku":"9781515435341","price":34.52,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0770\/3891\/1666\/files\/RwoA4Kqww09781515435341.webp?v=1782866389","url":"https:\/\/box.dadyminds.org\/products\/o-pioneers-hardcover","provider":"DADYMINDS BOX","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
