This looks an interesting article. I will start a review shortly. simongraham (talk) 03:24, 9 March 2021 (UTC)

Review
The article is clearly written and covers an interesting topic. It is stable, 64.5% of authorship is one user, Urve. It is currently ranked a B class article.


 * The article is well researched and written in a readable style.
 * It is illustrated with relevant images that are marked as in the public domain,
 * The wikilink to University of Nebraska redirects to University of Nebraska–Lincoln, but the school is called both in the text. I suggest choosing one.
 * Link Pittsburgh, New York City and Edith Lewis in the body at the first mention.
 * The term Great Plains is in the lead but not in the body. I suggest adding it to the first mention in the discussion on the Prairie Trilogy.
 * Inline citations are numerous and link to credible sources. The sentence "The French influence is found in many other Cather works, including Death Comes for the Archbishop (1927) and her final, unfinished novel set in Avignon, Hard Punishments." has no inline citation. Can you please add the correct one.
 * Sense of place is mentioned in the lead but not the body. The lead should be a summary of the article and so it would be good to be consistent.
 * The JAILLANT, LISE citation is in all caps, as are the authors BOUTRY, KATHERINE, HOMESTEAD, MELISSA J., BOHLKE, L. BRENT and STOUT, JANIS P. These should be title case.
 * I think that is everything. Please ping me when you would like me to look again. simongraham (talk) 03:51, 9 March 2021 (UTC)
 * Thank you very, very much for your kind review. These are all helpful and actionable requests. I believe I have fixed these issues! Urve (talk) 08:57, 9 March 2021 (UTC)
