Description

Edith Lewis’s editorial input helped shape Willa Cather’s writing for almost four decades—and for that same length of time, Willa Cather and Edith Lewis were life partners, too. Their relationship was tacitly accepted during their lifetime, only to be erased (along with Lewis’s legacy) in the second half of the 20th century. Join us as we bring Lewis back into the picture with this week’s guest, Dr. Melissa Homestead, author of The Only Wonderful Things: The Creative Partnership of Willa Cather and Edith Lewis. For episodes and show notes, visit: LostLadiesofLit.com Follow us on instagram @lostladiesoflit.
