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.
