by Edna Ferber (Author)

So Big - winner of the Pulitzer Prize in 1924 - the unforgettable story of schoolteacher Selina Peake Dejong, her marriage, widowhood, eventual success as a farmer, and of her son, Dirk.

In So Big, Ferber simultaneously created a vivid picture of turn-of-the-century Chicago and dealt with the (still) contemporary issues of poverty, Americanization, family tensions, sexism, and success, questioning what really makes a person happy in life.
