Frank Norris: A Descriptive Bibliography (Pittsburgh Series in Bibliography) - Hardcover

Although Frank Norris (1870-1902) was only 32 when he died, the Zola-inspired author of "McTeaque" and "The Octopus" vastly influenced the developments of American naturalism. He wrote almost seven novels and 300 short stories, articles, reviews, plays, and poems, displaying his versatility as a fiction writer, journalist, and critical thinker concerned with fin-de-siecle Western culture. Joseph McElrath has defined Norris's canon in this account of his publications in their many reprintings through 1990. Short writings are identified in their original periodical appearances and reprintings. Previously unknown works are cited for the first time, and works no longer thought to be Norris's are listed separately.
