More about the book

Theodore Dreiser, an influential American novelist and journalist, is known for his naturalist approach in literature. His works frequently explore protagonists who achieve their goals without a strong moral compass, presenting narratives that resemble studies of nature rather than traditional tales of choice and free will. This unique perspective highlights the complexities of human behavior and societal influences, making his novels a significant contribution to the naturalist movement.
