Willa Cather in context
You go in knowing the essentials: orphan from an early age struggles with identity and searches for birth parents. You go through the first 4 chapters feeling like a juror who wonders why charges were ever brought. He reports his adoptive parents' unwillingness to reveal his history but he never appears to really confront them and demand the information--that would have made the first part of the book attain some kind of traction. By the time I finished the book I was mostly sorry I ever started.
