Synopsis: The second book in Willa Cather’s “prairie trilogy,” The Song of the Lark is the story of a young woman’s awakening as an artist set against the western landscape.
Thea Kronborg grows up in a small town in Colorado, leaving to go to Chicago to follow her dreams of becoming a well-trained pianist. Instead, she discovers her own singing voice and is encouraged to pursue developing it instead. Thea travels to Dresden and New York City, singing in operas and propelling herself to greater levels of accomplishment with every step of her journey. A story of strong work ethic, independence, and growth, The Song of the Lark is a commentary on passion and discarding that which no longer serves you.
