McTeague: A Story of San Francisco
ISBN: 9780199554898 / Angielski / Miękka / 2009 / 384 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 8-10 dni roboczych. Inspired by an actual crime that was sensationalized in the San Francisco papers, this novel tells the story of charlatan dentist McTeague and his wife Trina, and their spiralling descent into moral corruption.

It is also one of the first major works of literature set in California, and it provided the story for Erich von Stroheim's classic of the silent screen, Greed.
