Sister Carrie

A landmark in American literature, presented in its complete and unexpurgated version.

Dreiser's unsparing story of a country girl's rise to riches as the mistress of a wealthy man marked the beginning of the naturalist movement in America.

Both its subject matter and Dreiser's objective, nonmoralizing approach made it highly controversial, and only a heavily edited version could be published in 1900.

In this restored version, the truly revolutionary nature of Sister Carrie is made fully evident.
