About this audiobook
The Financier is the first novel in Theodore Dreiser’s Trilogy of Desire, chronicling the rise and fall of Frank Cowperwood, a ruthlessly ambitious businessman in late 19th-century America. Inspired by real-life financier Charles T. Yerkes, the novel explores themes of capitalism, morality, and the relentless pursuit of success. With Dreiser’s detailed realism and incisive social critique, The Financier offers a gripping portrayal of American business and the human cost of ambition.
