HELP PLEASE!

A. In literature, realism is a school of thought that attempts to represent middle-class reality by using simple language and a straightforward tone, among other tools. Discuss how Willa Cather's novel My Ántonia demonstrates this realism. You might want to pay particular attention to the issue of suicide, the representation of the harshness of the prairie, or even Jim's views of life.
B. Discuss the narration in My Ántonia and how the use of both Jim's young voice and Jim's older voice changes the pace and flow of the novel for a reader.
