An American Tragedy: A Haunting Tale of Ambition, Love, and the Dark Side of the American Dream

When success is everything, how far will one man go to have it all? Born into poverty and yearning for something more, Clyde Griffiths is a young man consumed by ambition. When he lands a job at a prestigious company and meets the beautiful, high-society Sondra Finchley, he believes he's finally found his path to wealth and status.

But there's one problem: Roberta, the factory girl he left behind… and her inconvenient pregnancy.

As desperation builds and choices turn deadly, An American Tragedy unfolds as a chilling, morally complex story of love, class, and consequence. Inspired by true events, Theodore Dreiser's masterwork delivers a devastating critique of the American Dream—where success, fame, and love come at the ultimate price.

First published in 1925 and still shockingly relevant today, An American Tragedy is a literary landmark that explores how the pursuit of success can lead even the most ordinary people into extraordinary ruin.
