Summaries and Reviews
Summary
The brutal effects of poverty and the loneliness of slum life are portrayed in two short novels, which heralded the appearance of naturalism in American literature. Reissue.
Amazon.com description: Product Description: Published in 1893, Maggie: A Girl of the Streets shocked a world unprepared for its grim and starkly realistic exploration of a pretty young girlâs fall on New Yorkâs Bowery, and its critical depiction of the irresponsibility of men toward women. The five other stories in this collection are tales of quiet tension and raw intensity. From the local color of small-town life to the bustle of the city to war stories imbued with an ironic view of heroism, these stories are brilliantly constructed, extraordinarily lyrical, and psychologically penetrating. As a whole, this masterful collection demonstrates the unique and stunning genius of Stephen Crane and makes up an enduring testimony to one of Americaâs finest writers.
