Novela negra y policiaca

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.

"One of the most powerful novels ever written about ambition and moral collapse." – The New York Times

"A timeless classic that exposes the brutal costs of social climbing and self-deception." – The Washington Post

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.
