My Ántonia: resumo de Chapter 4
Chapter 4 de 45 · Book 1: The Shimerdas · 5 min para ler o capítulo
In Chapter 4, the narrator explores the prairie on his pony, teaches Ántonia Shimerda to read English, and observes her family's difficulties in their new surroundings. His pleasure in the open country contrasts with the Shimerdas' dependence on Krajiek, whose warnings keep them from visiting town and whose language makes him difficult to dismiss.
