Episode 33: Willa Cather with Sam Cummins

  • Resumen

  • Today we're joined by Sam Cummins of Nymphet Alumni to discuss the timeless American novelist Willa Cather. We talk about the needless politicization of Cather, why Nature is the ultimate identity cleansing force, and how frontier literature has evolved today.

    Discussed:

    Cather novels:

    • O, Pioneers
    • One of Ours
    • My Ántonia 
    • Death Comes for the Archbishop

    Willa Cather and the Politics of Criticism, Joan Acocella (2000)
