"Sister Carrie" is a novel by Theodore Dreiser that tells the story of a young woman named Carrie who moves to the city to pursue her American Dream. She starts as a mistress to wealthy men but eventually becomes a famous actress. The plot follows her journey as she navigates relationships and struggles with her own ambitions. The novel received mixed reviews upon publication, with some praising its realism and others criticizing its content. Despite initial low sales, it is now considered one of the greatest American urban novels. Dreiser's writing style has been both praised and criticized, but his depiction of Carrie's life remains influential. The novel has been adapted into a film and a musical, and it continues to be studied and analyzed for its exploration of human nature and the impact of industrialization.

Auteur

Theodore Dreiser (auteur)

Journaliste engagé, militant socialiste, romancier hors norme, Theodore Dreiser (1871 - 1945) est considéré comme le père de la littérature américaine du XX siècle. Le grand critique et théoricien des lettres américaines H. L. Mencken dit que « Dreiser a joué dans la littérature américaine le rôle qu'a joué Darwin dans la biologie, il l'a transformée radicalement ». Les plus grands écrivains américains du XXe siècle se sont, en effet, réclamé de son héritage.
