Introduction by Burton Rascoe, illustration by Reginald Marsh. Theodore Dreiser had a hardscrabble youth and the years of newspaper work behind him when he began his first novel, Sister Carrie, the story of a beautiful Midwestern girl who makes it big in New York City. Published by Doubleday in 1900, it gained a reputation as a shocker, for Dreiser had dared to give the public a heroine whose 'cosmopolitan standard of virtue' brings her from Wisconsin, with four dollars in her purse, to a suite at the Waldorf and glittering fame as an actress. With Sister Carrie, the original manuscript of which is in the New York Public Library collections, Dreiser told a tale not 'sufficiently delicate' for many of its first readers and critics, but which is now universally recognized as one of the greatest and most influential American novels.","brand":"The Heritage Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":40564080377926,"sku":"2333331","price":9.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1232\/9510\/products\/2333331.jpg?v=1682111129","url":"https:\/\/ym-demo.myshopify.com\/products\/sister-carrie","provider":"Yesterday's Muse","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
