Willa Cather

Willa Cather was an American novelist and one of the most important literary figures of the early twentieth century. She won the Pulitzer Prize for One of Ours and is celebrated for novels like My Ántonia, O Pioneers! and The Professor's House. Alexander's Bridge, available as an audiobook and book, was her debut novel, exploring ambition, desire and the tension between public success and private fulfilment. Cather's luminous prose continues to reward readers and listeners more than a century later.
