by Theodore Dreiser (Author)
This epic of class, ambition, and murder in the early 20th century is "[a] masterpiece...America's Crime and Punishment" (Kirkus Reviews).
Theodore Herman Albert Dreiser (1871-1945) was an American novelist and journalist best known for his pioneer work in the naturalist school. His writing often portrays characters whose strength lies not in their moral code or ethics, but instead in their absolute persistence as they are confronted by all obstacles; their unwillingness to yield. These are situations that more closely resemble studies of nature than tales of choice and agency. Dreiser's first commercial success was An American Tragedy (1925), which was made into a film in 1931 and again in 1951 (as A Place in the Sun). Literary critic Irving Howe said of Dreiser that he was, among the American giants, one of the very few American giants we have had, and one of Dreiser's chief advocates during his lifetime was H.L. Mencken who said, that he is a great artist, and that no other American of his generation left so wide and handsome a mark upon the national letters.
