An American Tragedy

After visiting the American Tragedy exhibit at the Fenimore over in Cooperstown, and visiting the gift shop. I found the book I've been meaning to buy for years and simply forgot about it. Theodore Dreiser's An American Tragedy. For the last week and a half I once again threw my self into the world of Chester aka Clyde and Grace aka Roberta. It's amazing to me even though I know this sad story very well how intrenched I became yet again. I just finished the book and again find my myself in a very peculiar sense of sorrow one being very hard to shake. Dreiser wrote a master piece to be sure.
