My Antonia Story

  If the story was told from Antonia's perspective it would of changed the whole book due to the fact that Jim and Antonia do not have the same thoughts. All the characters would be told in Antonia's perspective of them. The setting would be a bit depressed because of her father dieing. Her life story would be more clear instead of changing from one person to another like Jim did.

Cather is a very good writer because me myself could not tell that Jim the character was written by a women. She did a good job portraying a man's point of view. It is difficult to say what Jim sounds like because it is as if Jim is trying to tell the story through Antonia's eyes.

Jim knew Antonia like no one else did , they were best friends. He had feelings for her, and wanted her to be his therefore, My Antonia.
