This novel, Rolling Stock, is a meta-fiction juxtaposing excerpts from several of the author Stephen Crane's works with invented lives of his characters. Stephen Crane died at the age of 29 in 1900, having lived a full life of advocacy for poor and disenfranchised American. Ernest Hemingway once said that had Crane not died so young, he quite possibly would have been the greatest American writer.
