My ntonia Cather Willa
After the death of his parents, Jim Burden is sent to live with his grandparents in Nebraska, where he meets his first and most prominent love, Antonia Shimera. Narrated by Jim Burden, an orphan living with his grandparents next door to the Shimera's, My Antonia follows the coming of age and life of Jim and Antonia, the eldest daughter in the Shimera family. As pioneers in Nebraska, the Shimera family expected hardships, but none as devastating as a death in the family.
While the weather was often harsh and the untamed land made it difficult to yield crops, the Shimera family worked hard to maintain a content life. Starting when Jim and Antonia were young kids, the Burdens and the Shimera's live as neighbors in the plains of 19th century Nebraska. However, when a tragic death strikes the Shimera family, they fall into poverty despite the aid Jim's grandparents try to offer.
