My Ántonia (Willa Cather)
~
"I first heard of Ántonia on what seemed to me an interminable journey across the great midland plain of North America. I was ten years old then; I had lost both my father and mother within a year, and my Virginia relatives were sending me out to my grandparents, who lived in Nebraska."
From My Ántonia, a novel by Willa Cather (Houghton Mifflin Company, 1918).
