Chuck Crawford es pol\u00edtico de profesi\u00f3n, sure\u00f1o, tramposo y ad\u00faltero. Dos Passos retrata al pol\u00edtico populista que inspirar\u00eda \u00abTodos los hombres del rey\u00bb de Penn Warren.
Homer T. Crawford es un aut\u00e9ntico animal pol\u00edtico. Es n\u00famero uno en popularidad, contactos y favores. N\u00famero uno tambi\u00e9n en corrupci\u00f3n, demagogia y esc\u00e1ndalos privados. Con la ayuda de un asesor de campa\u00f1a, consigue el cargo de senador y pronto aspirar\u00e1 a la presidencia de Estados Unidos. Como har\u00eda Robert Penn Warren con \u00abTodos los hombres del rey\u00bb, Dos Passos esboza en esta obra una \u00e1cida caricatura de la figura de Huey Long, senador del estado de Luisiana en los a\u00f1os 30, y de su mano emprende un tortuoso recorrido por los lodazales de la corrupta pol\u00edtica americana. Un relato en el que Crawford y sus secuaces saltan de las p\u00e1ginas del libro a las im\u00e1genes de nuestros telediarios sin tener que cambiarse de corbata.
CR\u00cdTICA
\u00abEl de Chuck T. Crawford es el retrato del demagogo m\u00e1s ruidoso y mejor descrito de la literatura estadounidense.\u00bb\u2014Time
\u00abCon la sensibilidad de un poeta, Dos Passos nos hace ver y sentir las calurosas tardes de las llanuras de Texas, el aire sofocante del valle del Potomac en una noche de verano, la humeante degradaci\u00f3n de las habitaciones de hotel en las que Chuck planea sus campa\u00f1as y olvida a su esposa y a sus hijos.\u00bb
