Book Overview
In The Worker in American Fiction, Virginia Prestridge explores how fiction writers from the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries used the character of the worker to reflect on larger social issues such as class, labor, and gender. Using examples from well-known authors such as Upton Sinclair, Jack London, and Edith Wharton, Prestridge offers new insights into the ways in which American literature portrayed the working-class experience during this period.
