The Professor's House (Vintage Classics)

by Willa Cather

The Professor's House (Vintage Classics) Cover

Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

A study in emotional dislocation and renewal — Professor Godfrey St. Peter, a man in his 50's, has achieved what would seem to be remarkable success. When called on to move to a more comfortable home, something in him rebels.

Review:

"The Professor's House is arguably Willa Cather's most important novel of the 1920s. Thematically, the book is exceptionally far ranging." Great Plains Quarterly
