Music in Willa Cather's Fiction
Music is everywhere in Willa Cather's fiction: as a subject, in the background, slyly commenting on the action, connecting characters to a distant world, or revealing their interior worlds.

At the same time, it offers insights into her real world and time, her interests, and her astonishingly broad frame of reference.
