À propos de cette écoute

An American Tragedy is the story of Clyde Griffiths, who spends his life in the desperate pursuit of success. On a deeper, more profound level, it is the masterful portrayal of the society whose values both shape Clyde's ambitions and seal his fate; it is an unsurpassed depiction of the harsh realities of American life and of the dark side of the American dream. Extraordinary in scope and power, vivid in its sense of wholesale human waste, unceasing in its rich compassion, An American Tragedy stands as Theodore Dreiser's supreme achievement.

First published in 1925 and based on an actual criminal case, An American Tragedy was the inspiration for the 1951 film A Place in the Sun, which won six Academy Awards and starred Elizabeth Taylor and Montgomery Clift.

    I have to admit that I would never had the patience to read through this entire book as Dreiser describes so thoroughly in detail that you could create a painting of each scene. However, as an Audiobook read to me - in an excellent performance by the narrator - I now listened to it over many days. And I was fascinated by the story and the detailed description of this tragic story. We not even learn a lot about the Zeitgeist of that century but also about the eternal questioning for truth of the human soul. For sure, this book has been and is a masterpiece of literature.

    Amazing description of the human soul and condition
