About This Item
Carbondale IL: Southern Illinois University Press, 1974. reprint. Hardcover. Very Good/Very Good. Hardcover in a bright dust jacket, 479 pages. Predestined, Whitman’s first and most successful novel, is a remarkably controlled, inexorably plotted story of Felix Piers, born to wealth and misfortune, who was predestined to a life of failure. The rich, varied background of New York City’s many sides provides the compelling backdrop to this deterministic novel. First published in 1910, one of the titles in the Lost American Fiction Series. The author is an overlooked American literary naturalist whose Predestined compares favorably with the work of Frank Norris. Clean copy. Record # 385445
