The Chasm

The Chasm is a novel written by George Cram Cook and first published in 1911. The story is set in the early 20th century and follows the lives of a group of artists and intellectuals living in Greenwich Village, New York City. The main character, John Craig, is a struggling writer who is trying to find his place in the world. He becomes involved with a group of bohemian artists and intellectuals who are trying to create a new kind of society based on art and culture. However, their idealistic dreams are threatened by the harsh realities of life, including poverty, disease, and social inequality. As John becomes more involved with the group, he begins to question his own values and beliefs, and he must decide whether to continue on the path of artistic and intellectual exploration or to return to a more conventional way of life. The Chasm is a powerful and thought-provoking novel that explores the tensions between art and society, idealism and reality, and individualism and community.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
