From Library Journal
Cather's 1922 novel gets the red-carpet treatment here from scholars James Woodress, Karl Ronning, and Frederick M. Link, who offer textual analysis based on a recently discovered reworked draft, plus explanatory notes and historical material. A beauty, but the price is prohibitive. Too bad.

Book Description
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.
