The "Genius" (novel)
The "Genius" is a semi-autobiographical novel by Theodore Dreiser, first published in 1915. It concerns Eugene Witla, a painter, whose strong sexual desire allows the book to explore issues of art, business, love, sexuality, and morality. The book was rapidly banned due to its stark treatment of sexuality,[1] and did not receive broad distribution until 1923.
