THE SONG OF THE LARK
By Willa Sibert CatherAuthor of "O Pioneers!" and "Alexander's Bridge."
The story of a prima donna's life from childhood on a Western ranch to international fame.
"An uncommonly interesting novel. 'The Song of the Lark' is a book to read and not to 'skip.' Its gripping power lies in the reaction of Thea Kronborg's temperament upon the wise and courageous mother and also upon the generous men who made her development possible.... Miss Cather has created a flesh and blood woman."—Boston Transcript.
"A story of something better than suggestiveness and charm—a thing finished, sound and noble."—The Nation.
"Many books have been written of which the chief character has been a singer; there is something about a career behind the footlights that is strangely alluring. None, however, has been more skillfully and sympathetically written than 'The Song of the Lark.'"—Louisville Courier Journal.
"It has the artistic and literary merit of her earlier book, 'O Pioneers!' but it is an immeasurably bigger and richer story."—New York Globe.
