Overview
Harold Frederic (1856 - 1898) was an American born journalist who worked in London as a correspondent for the New York Times. He wrote several early stories, but it was not until he published Illumination (1896), better known by its American title, The Damnation of Theron Ware, that his remarkable gifts as a novelist were fully realized. The Market Place is a frightening yet fascinating novel. Contemporary with the Horatio Alger story it transforms the American myth into a study of the drive toward success by illuminating its moral simplicity. .The protagonist was a towering and menacing figure who rises out of the ruins of the aristocratic system that was then collapsing, or had collapsed.
