Manhattan Transfer

A Tale of Ambition, Politics, and Power
A Masterpiece of Modernist Fiction and Urban Realism
From the Gilded Age to the Jazz Age, John Dos Passos takes readers through a collage of characters chasing the American Dream, engulfed by the frenetic pace of New York's industrial expansion. Love, loss, and alienation unify the disparate characters against a thinly veiled critique of American capitalism. Published in 1925, this experimental novel combines innovative stream of consciousness with fragmented narratives adopted from a cinematic perspective. Dos Passos's panoramic literary style has inspired generations of writers.
