The Pit by Frank Norris

This classic literary critique of turn-of-the-century capitalism in the United States reveals Norris's powerful story of an obsessed trader intent on cornering the wheat market and the consequences of his unchecked greed.

Frank Norris (March 5, 1870 – October 25, 1902) was an American journalist and novelist of the Progressive Era, whose fiction was mostly in the naturalist genre.[1][2][3][4][5] His famous works include McTeague (1899), The Octopus: A Tale of California (1901), and The Pit (1903).
