So sorry to hear about your wife, ccowie. I do hope she is fully recovered very soon. That would certainly colour your feelings about any book, I should think!

I agree - I didn't find Alexandra a believable fully-rounded human being. She was just too good to be true. I'm happy to look on the book as an early work and see how Willa Cather developed by trying some of her later ones.
