This is a brutally honest autobiographical account of Theodore Dreiser's early youth, including frank revelations of adolescent sexuality. His is a story of a difficult childhood struggle to rise out of impoverished and sordid surroundings. It is a tale set in a turn-of-the-century Chicago of greasy cafes, run-down hardware stores, freight cars, and back-alley sexual adventures.
