Synopsis
Cather's episodic novel, based on a true story but heavily fictionalized, is about the literal and spiritual journey of Bishop Lamy and his vicar in the American Southwest in the mid-1800s, and is a tribute to the efforts of the Roman Catholic Church to improve the lives of the Hopi and Navajo Indians in the area. Full of readable and fascinating stories, the novel is also, because of its bold and experimental use of allegory and symbolism, a prime example of modernism at its height.

Publisher's Note
Death Comes for the Archbishop is Willa Cather's best-known novel, a narrative whose spare beauty achieves epic--and even mythic--qualities as it recounts a life lived simply in the silence of the southwestern desert.

Willa Cather's best known novel; a narrative that recounts a life lived simply in the silence of the southwestern desert.

Industry Reviews
"[T]he most perfect piece of writing Cather ever did."
WILLA CATHER & THE POLITICS OF CRIT - Joan Acocella (01/01/2000)

"What intrigues me about [Cather] is the intelligence with which she combines her formidable learning in European art and literature with her 'new' unformed or formless American subjects, the settlers and pioneers with their unrecorded lives and their diverse heritages....Willa Cather's composed acceptance of mystery [in this novel] is a major, and rare, artistic achievement.""
introduction - A. S. Byatt
