Theodore Dreiser

Američki pisac (Terre-Haute, 27. VIII. 1871 – Hollywood, 28. XII. 1945), naturalist po književnoj metodi i mehanicističkom fatalizmu svojega pogleda na svijet, stvorio je niz opsežnih romana, u kojima daje sumornu sliku suvremene Amerike. Radnja njegovih romana vezana je uz razvoj i moralnu degeneraciju snažnih i ambicioznih osobnosti (Sestra Carrie – Sister Carrie, 1900; Novčar – The Financier, 1912; Titan – The Titan, 1914; Genije – The »Genius«, 1915). Kriza i propast očekuju slabije, pasivne i u sebe nesigurne likove. U svojem najpoznatijem djelu Američka tragedija (An American Tragedy, 1925) prikazao je sukob između junaka i društva u kojem je novac mjerilo uspjeha, što nužno zavodi na zločin. Dreiser ne moralizira, nego pokazuje logiku zbivanja koja vodi u prijestup. Zbog širine koncepcije i zamaha fabule, smatraju ga jednim od glavnih američkih pisaca XX. st.
