Summary

Acclaimed by critic Alfred Kazin as "a powerful, severe, and harshly comic portrayal of Irish immigrant life in lower New York," Stephen Crane's novel remains a classic of American literary naturalism and a realistic portrayal of slum life at the end of the 19th century. This edition reproduces the text of the 1893 first edition, rather than the later bowdlerized version.

Author Biography

American author Stephen Crane (1871–1900) is best known for his Civil War novel, The Red Badge of Courage, published in 1895 to immediate acclaim and great success. He also wrote many short stories, and reported on the Greco-Turkish War of 1897 and the Spanish-American War during the late 1890s. Crane was prolific throughout his tragically brief life and posthumously recognized for his work's innovative blend of naturalistic and impressionistic qualities.
