Peyton Tue, 18 Sep 2007 13:18:16 +0000 http://1morechapter.com/2007/09/15/o-pioneers/#comment-978 I agree with Stephanie. I loved this book almost precisely because it was "very sparse with a lot of depth." I read this for a course in literature once, and I remember it being the only book that I actually engendered any reader's pleasure from. You've reminded of my long ago vow to read more Cather.

But I love a good strong female character, and Alexandra was definitely one. They was a lot of time that was skipped, but I thought it went well with the story. Very sparse, but a lot of depth!

And it turned really soap opera like at the end for me, really dramatic. I wasn't expecting such violence. I think I was expecting more like Little House on the Prairie, that kind of gentleness. Not the book's fault it wasn't what I thought before. I agree, it was good, but it just seemed like there should be more. And it turned really soap opera like at the end for me, really dramatic.
