Mcteague; And A Man???????s Woman: Stories Of San Francisco (1899) is a collection of two stories by Frank Norris set in the bustling metropolis of San Francisco at the turn of the 20th century. The first story, Mcteague, follows the titular character, a dentist who marries his cousin, Trina, and their descent into poverty and madness. The story explores themes of greed, jealousy, and the corrupting power of money.

The story delves into the complexities of romantic relationships and the consequences of infidelity. Both stories capture the spirit of San Francisco during a time of great change and offer a glimpse into the lives of its inhabitants.
