AN AMERICAN TRAGEDY by Theodore Dreiser, read by Grover Gardner
Manage episode 438443287 series 2426941
A master performer, Grover Gardner elevates Dreiser’s naturalistic 1925 novel, an account of the strivings and disappointments of Clyde Griffiths, a flawed but fascinating protagonist whose rise and fall end when he commits a heinous crime and is executed for it. Host Jo Reed and AudioFile’s Alan Minskoff discuss a title that Alan says will make even the most hard-hearted listener yearn for restorative justice, thanks to its precisely chiseled anti-capitalist details of a stratified collar factory with its nepotistic organization and its evocation of prison life—rigid, punitive, and unyielding.
