Ann Vickers. E-book. Formato EPUB. Ann Vickers is a product of the twentieth century&ndash;a woman, fearless and dauntless, who set out to do things&ndash;to whom it mattered not that convention and tradition had to be defied.<br />A career, success, fame, love, a home, a child&ndash;Ann wanted them all. She achieved success and frustration, bleak apartment hotels, domestic boredom, public homage and furtive rapture&ndash;until at last she dared to be herself.<br />Mr. Lewis draws a frank, enduring picture of Ann, one that has life and color and speed against a background teeming with the questions and causes of the day. He does for the social worker and penologist, exposing the outrageous prison conditions, what he did for the doctor in <i>Arrowsmith</i> and the minister in <i>Elmer Gantry</i>&ndash;with the same sure insight and clear penetration.
