Reviews
"A truly remarkable book . . . Soaked through and through with atmosphere . . . From the riches of her imagination and sympathy Miss Cather has distilled a very rare piece of literature. It stands out, from the very resistance it opposes to classification." -NEW YORK TIMES "The most sensuous of writers, Willa Cather builds her imagined world as solidly as our five senses build the universe around us." -Rebecca West "[Cather's] descriptions of the Indian mesa towns on the rock are as beautiful, as unjudging, as lucid, as her descriptions of the Bishop's cathedral. It is an art of 'making,' of clear depiction-of separate objects, whose whole effect works slowly and mysteriously in the reader, and cannot be summed up . . . Cather's composed acceptance of mystery is a major, and rare, artistic achievement." -from the Introduction by A. S. Byatt

    This hardback book is of the highest quality, has a fine appearance , arrived in perfect condition, and is an excellent value. On what I was not asked about this time, communicating with the seller would have required using email outside of the eBay system, because they do not accept eBay messages, the book was well packed in a purpose-designed cardboard box, the shipping was faster than I expected for the bound media rate, and the book was exactly as described and pictured.
