Viac o knihe

One of the foremost 20th-century American novelists, Willa Cather is particularly renowned for the memorable women who populate such works as My Antonia and O Pioneers! In The Song of the Lark, she presents the portrait of another such formidable woman, Thea Kronborg, who defies the limitations set on women of her time and social station to become an international opera star. This coming-of-age novel, important for the issues of gender and class that it explores, is one of Cather's most popular.
