Critical sites about My Antonia

‘I had the feeling that the world was left behind, that we had got over the edge of it’ (Willa Cather). Pioneer Opportunities in Cather and Faulkner.
http://www.thepequod.org.uk/essays/litcrit/pioneer.htm
“Willa Cather’s My Antonia and William Faulkner’s The Sound and the Fury are contrasted. Both texts offer different temporal perspectives on the myth of free-land. Cather’s novel is prospective, occluding the actual political and commercial fragmentation of the future from which she is writing in order to portray the uncertainty in transition felt by the American pioneer; Faulkner’s novel is retrospective, highlighting through the collapse of language and time the historical failure of democratic possibility.”
From: The Pequod MLA: “Title of the Article/Page.” The Pequod. dd mon.m yyyy. dd mon. yyyy .
