Summary
Willa Cather was perhaps most famous for her great novels such as My Antonia and Death Comes to the Archbishop. However, her short stories were enchanting and practical, local and cosmopolitan. Of the great American writers of the early part of the twentieth century she stood alone in her vision. No American writer ever had her breadth of experience and knowledge of people and places, relating to farmers in Nebraska, to barons in New York, and artists in Paris. Some of each of them appear in these stories. Nine of her best and favorite short stories are read here. "The Burglar's Christmas", "The Enchanted Bluff", "The Garden Lodge", "The Namesake", "Nanette: An Aside", "On the Divide", "The Profile", "The Sculptor's Funeral", and "The Strategy of Were-Wolf Dog".
