Sister Carrie
by Theodore Dreiser
Theodore Dreiser's first and perhaps most accessible novel, "Sister Carrie," is the epic of city life, the story of an innocent heroine who drifts in an indifferent city. When small-town girl Carrie Mieber goes to Chicago, she has nothing but a few dollars, unspoiled beauty and charm, and a pathetic lack of preparation for the difficult moral choices she'll face.
