This, the most autobiographical of Cather's novels, is the moving story of a courageous young woman determined to forge her own destiny.Born into obscurity in a small desert town of the American West, Thea escapes her humble origins - and a doomed love affair - through the power of her extraordinary voice. But with artistic recognition comes the realisation of the price it has for a woman: the greater her success in the musical world, the paler and more insignificant her personal life seems. The result is a strange reversal of the fate of Oscar Wilde's Dorian Gray.
