| Publisher Description: 1912. One of the most interesting women writers in America, this is Cather's first novel. Alexander's Bridge is the story of the self-made man, Bartley Alexander, a world famous engineer and bridge builder from the Midwest. He is working on his latest project, a great bridge across the St. Lawrence in Quebec. He is happily married, wealthy, good-looking and admired, but despite this outward appearance of happiness, he is restless and discontented with his life on the east coast, yearning for something he cannot find or even quite describe. When he meets a former love interest from his student life, he resumes his relationship with her, and for a year lives a double life and agonizing over choosing between her and his successful life.
