Death Comes for the Archbishop

di Cather Willa (Autore)

Golden Quill Classics, 2025

Two priests. One mission. A new world to be built on faith. Death Comes for the Archbishop (1927), by Willa Cather, is a lyrical and deeply moving novel that tells the story of two French Catholic missionaries sent to establish a diocese in the vast deserts of New Mexico during the 19th century. At its heart is the friendship between Father Jean Marie Latour and Father Joseph Vaillant, whose quiet perseverance, courage, and devotion shape not only their own lives but the communities they serve. Through their encounters with Native Americans, Mexican villagers, and settlers, Cather paints a portrait of cultural collision, resilience, and the blending of old traditions with new faith. Unlike a conventional novel, this masterpiece unfolds as a series of vivid episodes—meditations on landscape, spirituality, and the endurance of the human spirit. It is both a celebration of the American Southwest and a profound exploration of duty, sacrifice, and love. Praised for its beauty and restraint, Death Comes for the Archbishop remains one of Cather's greatest achievements and a cornerstone of American literature. ??
