The classic depiction of the harsh realities of American life, the dark side of the American Dream, and one man's doomed pursuit of love and success..."Mr. Dreiser is not imitative and belongs to no school. He is at heart a mysticist and a fatalist, though using the realistic method. He is, on the evidence of this novel alone, a power." --The New York Times Book Review

It was an extremely difficult book to read. For me, it did not truly pick up until page 450. An amazing book despite it being lengthy. If you wish to challenge yourself with a fiction book, this is an excellent challenge.
