Complete Works of Frank Norris: The Epic of the Wheat: The Pit (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9781019481905)

This volume brings together the two masterpieces of American Naturalism by Frank Norris. The Epic of the Wheat, a trilogy of novels, captures the rise and fall of the wheat industry in California and the Midwest at the turn of the 20th century. The Pit, set in Chicago's commodities market, depicts the ruthless competition and greed that pervade modern capitalism. Norris's vivid prose and uncompromising realism make these classics relevant and engaging to contemporary readers.
