Frank Norris's McTbague is a significant example of American literary naturalism as well as a commentary on turn-of-the-century American cultural values. This revised Norton Critical Edition is again based on the 1899 first edition text and is fully annotated.
"Contexts" focuses on the novel's sources and composition. Included are newspaper accounts of a San Francisco murder; a description of Norris's Polk Street neighborhood (which figures prominently in McTeague); an examination of the relationship between the novel and naturalism; and a discussion of the book's genesis, from its origin as a Harvard assignment to Norris's revision of it upon his return to San Francisco.
"Criticism" has been revised to include major recent assessments of the novel. Two seminal pieces from the previous edition have been retained--Ernest Marchand's account of McTeague's 1899 reviews and Donald Pizer's essay on naturalism. Six essays and four stills from Erich yon Stroheitn's film version of McTeague are new. The new essays are by Don Graham, William E. Cain, Barbara Hochman, James L. Caron, Mary Lawtor, and Donna M. Campbell.
A Chronology and updated Selected Bibliography are also included. ABOUT THE SERIES: Each Norton Critical Edition includes an authoritative text, contextual and source materials, and a wide range of interpretations--from contemporary perspectives to the most current critical theory-as well as a bibliography and, in many cases, a chronology of the author's life and work.
