Sinopse
On the wind-swept tablelands of Nebraska, Alexandra Bergson inherits the burden of her family's farm and the challenge of taming the wild soil. While she succeeds in cultivating the land through vision and labor, the human passions around her erupt into a tragedy that wealth cannot prevent. The novel elevates the story of immigrant farmers to the level of an epic, exploring the relationship between the creative spirit and the indifferent earth. It is a powerful pastoral that asks what must be sacrificed to build a legacy.
