Kniha inšpirovaná skutočnou udalosťou vytvára príbeh o mladíkovi snívajúcom americký sen. V textilnej fabrike sa do neho zaľúbi Roberta. Ani vzťah ho však neprivedie k prijatiu zodpovednosti – trvá na Robertinom potrate. Dôvodom je iná žena, ktorú vníma ako záruku lepšej budúcnosť. Sen o bohatstve ho tak zaslepuje natoľko, že sa uchyľuje k plánu Robertu zabiť.

The Genius


Theodore Dreiser heavily invested himself in The Genius, an autobiographical novel first published in 1915. Thoroughly immersed in the turn-of-the-century art scene, The Genius explores the multiple conflicts between art and business, art and marriage, and between traditional and modern views of sexual morality. Despite heavy editing, The Genius was deemed so shocking that its sale was immediately prohibited by the New York Society for the Suppression of Vice. It was not released until 1923, and thereafter the episode confirmed Dreiser's status as a writer ahead of his time.

OWC Sister Carrie


Theodore Dreiser had a hardscrabble youth and the years of newspaper work behind him when he began his first novel, "Sister Carrie," the story of a beautiful Midwestern girl who makes it big in New York City. Published by Doubleday in 1900, it gained a reputation as a shocker, for Dreiser had dared to give the public a heroine whose "cosmopolitan standard of virtue" brings her from Wisconsin, with four dollars in her purse, to a suite at the Waldorf and glittering fame as an actress. With "Sister Carrie," the original manuscript of which is in the New York Public Library collections, Dreiser told a tale not "sufficiently delicate" for many of its first readers and critics, but which is now universally recognized as one of the greatest and most influential American novels.

Amerikai tragédia I-II.


Klasszikus krimi: egy fiatalember megöli a szeretőjét, s utána elkezdődik a nyomozás, a bizonyítás, majd lesújt a büntetés. De talán még izgalmasabb, hogy mi történt előtte. Miért ölt Clyde? Miféle erők játéka végez az áldozattal és a tettessel is? F urcsa dolog, de a nagy naturalista regényben végül minden jelképpé válik, minden túlmutat önmagán, s amikor az olvasó leteszi a krimit, már tudja, hogy többet és mást kapott: társadalomkritikát és annál is többet erkölcsfilozófiát. Miután ugyanis m eggyőződtünk róla, hogy Clyde-nál sokkalta bűnösebb a társadalom, amely a maga konkrét és elvont mechanizmusával bűnbe hajszolja, felvetődik egy mélyebb és nehezebben megválaszolható kérdés: ez a társadalmi meghatározottság mennyiben veszi le a felel ősséget a tettes-áldozat válláról? Vagyis a regény látszólagos egyszerűsége ellenére is több síkon játszódik talán ennek köszönheti maradandóságát.
