In the novel “My Antonia” by Willa Cather, it is debatable whether characters Jim or Antonia learned more throughout their relationship. Personally, I believe that Jim learned more throughout their relationship. Considering that Jim is the narrator of the story, we get to see his inner thoughts, and never have confirmation of Antonia’s feelings, we just know what Jim thinks she has learned.

Born and raised in a tiny Minnesota prairie town, few would have guessed that young and down-to-earth Sinclair Lewis would become one of America’s most celebrated authors and outspoken liberal thinkers. Lewis didn’t discover this exact destiny until his 20s, but from his early teens, Lewis could tell that the prairie village of his birth would be far too limiting for his future.

it melts into river hills, and there is a mix of farmland and native prairie grasses that serve to house countless wildlife and insects. The smell of sage and grains waft through rolled down windows as the ever present breeze blows across the prairie. Or during winter, when a thin layer of snow clings to the grass as winds scream across the sky. Here houses are few and far between, it is true openness, true freedom.
