Third Circle
by Frank Norris
'Third Circle' Summary
The stories in The Third Circle are set in a variety of settings, from the bustling streets of San Francisco to the isolated frontier of the American West. They feature a diverse cast of characters, from struggling immigrants to wealthy socialites, and explore a wide range of human experiences. Norris's writing is unflinchingly realistic, and he does not shy away from depicting the harsh realities of life for many people in the late 19th century. However, his stories also contain moments of beauty and hope, and they offer a powerful indictment of the social and economic injustices of the time.Book Details
