The Triumph of the Egg, Sherwood Anderson’s 1921 collection of poems and short stories, focuses on the alienating and disruptive moments of American small-town life. Similar in tone to its more famous sibling—Winesburg, Ohio—Triumph focuses on the driving issues of the early 20th c. Midwest: modernization, increasing industrialization, the growth of big business, and the Great Migration.
