Set in late 19th-century Nebraska, the narrative follows Jim Burden, an orphaned boy, and Ántonia Shimerda, the resilient daughter of Bohemian immigrants. After her father's tragic suicide, Ántonia faces hardship as a servant but later elopes with a railway conductor. Ultimately, she returns to her roots, marrying Anton Cuzak and embracing the role of a devoted wife and mother. The story explores themes of perseverance, the immigrant experience, and the pioneering spirit of the American West through their intertwined lives.
