Americká tragédia - Theodore Dreiser
10.9 €
Kniha inšpirovaná skutočnou udalosťou vytvára príbeh o mladíkovi snívajúcom americký sen. V textilnej fabrike sa do neho zaľúbi Roberta. Ani vzťah ho však neprivedie k prijatiu zodpovednosti – trvá na Robertinom potrate. Dôvodom je iná žena, ktorú vníma ako záruku lepšej budúcnosť. Sen o bohatstve ho tak zaslepuje natoľko, že sa uchyľuje k plánu Robertu zabiť.
