"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.

Elle ressemblait ainsi a une tres jeune princesse de conte, aux levres bleuies et aux paupieres blanches. Ses cheveux se melaient aux herbes roussies par les matins de gel et ses petites mains s`etaient fermees sur du vide. Il faisait si froid ce jour-la que les moustaches de tous se couvraient de neige a mesure qu`ils soufflaient I`air comme des taureaux. On battait la semelle pour faire revenir le sang dans les pieds. Dans le ciel, des oies balourdes tracaient des cercles. Elles semblaient avoir perdu leur route. Le soleil se tassait dans son manteau de brouillard qui peinait a s`effilocher. On n`entendait rien. Meme les canons semblaient avoir gele.
