''She is undoubtedly one of the twentieth century''s greatest American writers'' OBSERVER

''Her finest novel . . . A masterpiece'' IRISH TIMES

''The vivacious Marian Forrester stands as a romantic paean to the pioneer''s reckless abandon, counterpointed by the narrator''s prim decency'' THE TIMES

Marian Forrester brings delight to her husband, an elderly railroad pioneer; to the small town of Sweet Water where they live; and to Niel Herbert, the young narrator of her story who falls in love with her as a boy and later becomes her confidant. He witnesses this vibrant woman in all her contradictory facets: by turns faithless and steadfast, dazzling and pathetic, invincibly charming yet dangerously vulnerable to the men she charms. All are bewitched by her charisma and grace - and all are ultimately betrayed.

Willa Cather''s most perfect novel is not only a portrait of a troubling beauty, but also a haunting evocation of a noble age slipping irrevocably into the past.
