More about the book

The narrative follows Jim, who moves to Nebraska after his parents' death, where he befriends Antonia, a spirited girl from a struggling immigrant family. As they grow up, their paths diverge: Jim pursues academia while Antonia embraces her independence as a 'hired girl' in town. Through their friendship, themes of resilience, cultural diversity, and the contrasting lives on the prairie are explored. Cather vividly captures the essence of early 20th-century rural life and the immigrant experience in America.
