One character in this work says that if he ever meets God he'll ask for a million dollars and a bottle of beer. A policeman tells another character that she has complained of 42 separate ruined daughters after she's been arrested for drunkenness. In its opening chapters, the protagonist's brother Tommie dies, and another character fights with Billie. It begins on Rum Alley, where the title character's brother Jimmie is saved from the children of Devil's Row by the sophisticated Pete, whom the title character idolizes. However, Nellie causes Pete to leave the title character, who then tries to make a living as a prostitute before her death. For 10 points, name this naturalistic novel about a "girl of the streets," by Stephen Crane.
