It is generally considered to be the second novel in Cather´s Prairie Trilogy, following O Pioneers! (1913) and preceding My Ántonia (1918).

When her instructor hears her voice, he realizes that this is her true artistic gift. He encourages her to pursue her vocal training instead of piano saying ... ´´your voice is worth all that you can put into it.

Her reference for life is always her home town and the people she encountered there. The novel captures Thea´s independent-mindedness, her strong work ethic, and her ascent to her highest achievement. At each step along the way, her realization of the mediocrity of her peers propels her to greater levels of accomplishment, but in the course of her ascent she must discard those relationships which no longer serve her.
