For residents of the Great Plains, My Ántonia embodies the NEA’s "Where We Live" theme. The novel is set in Black Hawk, Nebraska, a town Willa Cather modeled after her childhood hometown of Red Cloud. More than that, Cather's memorable "fictional" character Ántonia Shimerda was very closely based on Cather's real-life friend, Anna Sadilek Pavelka, who immigrated to Nebraska from Bohemia (the Czech Republic today) in 1880. While My Ántonia takes place in the late 19th Century, its themes of enduring friendship and tenacity in the face of adversity are timeless. Cather’s evocative descriptions of the land and of life in rural America have drawn readers into this classic novel for more than 100 years.  

NOTE: Guests should have their own transportation and plan to follow a tour guide from site to site. Tours last approximately 90 minutes. FOR MORE ON THE NEA BIG READ: www.willacather.org/big-read
