A luminous collection—with an introduction, notes, chronology, and bibliography—of ten of Willa Cather's short works written from 1900 to 1920.

Uprooted from a well-ordered life in Virginia when she was nine, Willa Cather came of age in the West during the last years of the American frontier. She developed a love for the beauty of open grassland and an abiding interest in the Old World customs of her neighbors, the dreamers and builders who inhabit her fiction. This collection spans her career from talented young writer to Pulitzer Prize-winning author. 

Included in the collection are:

  • Eric Hermannson's Soul
  • The Sculptor's Funeral
  • A Wagner Matinee
  • Paul's Case
  • The Enchanted Bluff
  • The Bohemian Girl
  • Uncle Valentine
  • Neighbour Rosicky
  • Old Mrs. Harris

The volume also includes an important critical essay, "The Novel Démeublé." As Robert K. Miller writes in the introduction, "To read the stories of Willa Cather is to discover that her short fiction is an essential part of the great legacy she left to our country."
