Description

'A Lost Lady' is Willa Cather's brilliant depiction of the decline of the American pioneer spirit and the bleakness of frontier life.

In it, socialite Marrian Forrester lives with her husband, the ageing industrial magnate Captain Forrester, in the small town of Sweet Water.

To the young, adoring narrator Niel Herbert, she is both bewitching and beautiful.

The very definition of a lady. But Marrian Forrester is not what she seems and sparked by the death of her husband; her social decline lays bare her contradictions to the town.Published in 1923, Cather's revered novel is an elegy to the pioneer west.

The writer F. Scott Fitzgerald acknowledged its influence on his famous work 'The Great Gatsby' and the character of Daisy Buchanan in particular.-
