[ED: Taschenbuch], [PU: Echo Library], Willa Sibert Cather (1873-1947) was an American writer acclaimed for her novels of frontier life on the Great Plains, including O Pioneers! (1913), The Song of the Lark (1915), and My Antonia (1918). In 1923 she was awarded the Pulitzer Prize for One of Ours (1922), a novel set partly in Nebraska and partly in France during WWI. Her family relocated from Virgina to Nebraska in 1883 and Cather graduated from the University of Nebraska-Lincoln with a BA in English in 1894. She moved to Pittsburgh in 1896, supporting herself as a magazine editor and high school English teacher. In 1906 the offer of an editorial position on McClure's Magazine prompted her move to New York City which became her primary home for the rest of her life, though she travelled widely and spent much time at her summer residence on Grand Manan Island, New Brunswick. Her first collection of stories The Troll Garden had been published by McClure, Phillips & Co in 1905, and McClure's serialised her first novel, Alexander's Bridge, prior to book publication in 1913. Cather followed this with the three novels set on the prairie named above which became both popular and critical successes. The award of the Pulitzer Prize for One of Ours cemented her position as a major American writer and her next novel Death Comes to the Archbishop (1928) was included on the Modern Library 100 Best Novels of the 20th century.

1922. Cather won the Pulitzer Prize for her novel, One of Ours, about a midwestern American''s journey to the front of World War I. Claude Wheeler, the sensitive, aspiring protagonist of this beautifully modulated novel, resembles the youngest son of a peculiarly American fairy tale. His fortune is ready-made for him, but he refuses to settle for it. Alienated from his crass father and pious mother, all but rejected by a wife who reserves her ardor for missionary work, and dissatisfied with farming, Claude is an idealist without an ideal to cling to. It is only when his country enters the First World War that Claude finds what he has been searching for all his life. In One of Ours Willa Cather explores the destiny of a grandchild of the pioneers, a young Nebraskan whose yearnings impel him toward a frontier bloodier and more distant than the one that vanished before his birth. In doing so, she creates a canny and extraordinarily vital portrait of an American psyche at once skeptical and romantic, restless and heroic.
