Frank Norris 
McTeague [EPUB ebook] 

Destek

First published in 1899, this graphic depiction of urban American life centers around its title character, Mc Teague, a dentist practicing in San Francisco at the turn of the century. While at first content with his life and friendship with an ambitious man named Marcus, Mc Teague eventually courts and marries Trina, a frugal young woman who wins a large sum of money in a lottery. The greed of the majority of the characters in the novel creates a chain of events that lead to many painful, gruesome deaths. Norris’ work, so strikingly different from that of his contemporaries, is an admirable example of social realism, which provided America with a shocking reflection of its sordid sense of survival. From the opening description of San Francisco to Mc Teague’s final desperate flight far from his ‘Dental Parlors’, this novel examines human greed in a way that still causes readers to pause and reflect over one hundred years later. This edition includes a biographical afterword.
