So Big -- Edna Ferber

<p><strong>Winner of the Pulitzer Prize and widely considered to be Edna Ferber's greatest achievement, </strong><em><strong>So Big</strong></em><strong> is a classic novel of turn-of-the-century Chicago.</strong> </p><p>Hailed as a novel "to read and remember" (<em>New York Times</em>), <em>So Big</em> is the unforgettable story of the indomitable Selina Peake DeJong and her struggles to stay afloat and maintain her dignity in the face of a challenging marriage, widowhood, and single parenthood. First published in 1924, <em>So Big</em> is a brilliant literary masterwork from one of the twentieth century's most accomplished and admired writers, and still resonates today with its unflinching views of poverty, sexism, and the drive for success.</p><br><br><b>Author:</b> Edna Ferber<br><b>Publisher:</b> Harper Perennial<br><b>Published:</b> 06/15/2010<br><b>Pages:</b> 288<br><b>Binding Type:</b> Paperback<br><b>Weight:</b> 0.50lbs<br><b>Size:</b> 7.90h x 5.30w x 0.80d<br><b>ISBN:</b> 9780061859984<br><br><b>Accelerated Reader:</b><br><b>Reading Level:</b> 5.8<br><b>Point Value:</b> 14<br><b>Interest Level:</b> Upper Grade<br><b>Quiz #/Name: </b>10846 / So Big<br>
