“The Philadelphia into which Frank Algernon Cowperwood was born was a city of two hundred and fifty thousand and more.”
Theodore Herman Albert Dreiser ( August 27, 1871 – December 28, 1945) was an American novelist and journalist of the naturalist school. His novels often featured main characters who succeeded at their objectives despite a lack of a firm moral code, and literary situations that more closely resemble studies of nature than tales of choice and agency.[2] Dreiser's best-known novels include Sister Carrie (1900) and An American Tragedy (1925).
