Extract From 'One Of Ours' By Willa Cather

Relax listening to a beautifully written excerpt from Willa Cather's Pullitzer Prize winning novel. Claude is a young man who believes there must be more to life than the materialism that his Nebraskan farming family seem ruled by.

Reviews

We read some Willa Cather in high school but I think her writing is much more appealing to an older reader (now that I’m 74 I have a whole different perspective on her). I’d never heard of One of Us but got a copy and am half way through. What a tale! Thanks for the inspiration to give this great writer another chance!
