"Maggie, the Street Girl" only attracted people's attention after the author's "The Red Badge of Heroes" caused a sensation in the literary world. The story takes place in the slums of New York. Maggie's parents were both drunkards and were very rough with their children, either beating or scolding them. Maggie could not get any warmth at home. After she "grew into a flower in the mire, emerged into a beautiful and outstanding girl, and became an amazing miracle in that apartment complex", she worked as a female worker in a shirt factory. Her beauty makes her brother's friend Peter salivate. As a hotel clerk, Peter is a slick gangster. He takes advantage of Maggie's youth and naivety, using money and clothes as bait to seduce her, so that Maggie, who is poor, unfortunate and inexperienced in the world, is deceived into living with him. Soon Peter abandoned Maggie and found a new love. Subsequently, Maggie lost her job in a shirt factory. Her mother, who was very religious, did not allow her to go home. She had to live on the streets and worked as a prostitute for several months. Finally, she committed suicide in a river in grief, anger and despair. Her mother was heartbroken and "forgave" this "bad boy". The novel is one of the earliest naturalistic works in American literature, predating both Frank Norris's "McTeague" and Theodore Dreiser's "Sister Carrie" by several years.
