Collector's Edition Laminated Hardback with Jacket

A man's ambition and desire for a better life lead him down a dark and treacherous path, where love, greed, and moral compromise collide. Torn between two women and the promise of wealth, he finds himself making choices that threaten to unravel everything he's worked for. As his dreams of success begin to take shape, the weight of his decisions grows heavier, pulling him deeper into a spiral of desperation. In this gripping tale of power, temptation, and consequence, the line between right and wrong blurs, leaving a life forever changed.

An American Tragedy holds a mirror to the American dream, offering a critical examination of the social and economic forces shaping individual lives in the early 20th century. Dreiser's exploration of class, ambition, and morality challenges the notion of success, revealing the dark undercurrents that accompany the pursuit of wealth and power. The novel's raw portrayal of a man's internal conflict and the consequences of his actions exposes the harsh realities of American society. Its historical significance lies in its unflinching critique of the American ideal, making it a powerful reflection on the costs of progress and ambition.
