Theodore Dreiser is one of the most penetrating observers of the
greatest period of social change the United States ever saw.
Writing as America emerged as the world's wealthiest nation,
Dreiser chronicled industrial and economic transformation and the
birth of consumerism with an unmatched combination of detail,
sympathy, and power. The specially commissioned essays collected in
this volume are written by a leading team of scholars of American
literature and culture. They establish parameters for both
scholarly and classroom discussion of Dreiser. This Companion
provides fresh perspectives on the frequently read classics, Sister
Carrie and An American Tragedy, as well as on topics of perennial
interest, such as Dreiser's representation of the city and his
prose style. The volume investigates topics such as his
representation of masculinity and femininity, and his treatment of
ethnicity. It is the most comprehensive introduction to Dreiser's
work available.
