Synopsis "So Big"

Winner of the Pulitzer Prize, Edna Ferber's So Big is a sweeping story about ambition, sacrifice, family, and the meaning of success. The novel follows Selina Peake DeJong, a determined woman who builds a life for herself and her son against the hardships of rural America. As her son Dirk grows up, the two find themselves drawn toward very different ideas of what constitutes a fulfilling life. Selina values beauty, creativity, and meaningful work, while Dirk becomes increasingly fascinated by wealth, status, and material success. Through their contrasting paths, Ferber examines the choices families make and the price of pursuing society's definition of achievement. Rich in character and social observation, So Big remains a compelling portrait of changing American values and the complicated relationship between dreams, money, work, and happiness.
