Frank Norris’s powerful novel, 'McTeague: A Story of San Francisco,' is a landmark of American naturalism. Set in the gritty working-class neighborhoods of late 19th-century San Francisco, the story follows McTeague, a simple-minded dentist, and his descent into poverty and violence after winning the lottery and succumbing to the destructive force of greed. Norris’s unflinching portrayal of the brutal realities of urban life and the corrupting influence of money makes 'McTeague' a compelling and enduring work of social commentary. The novel’s vivid characters and stark depiction of human nature continue to resonate with readers today, solidifying its place as a classic of American literature.
