Description for Sister Carrie Paperback. Presents a story of a country girl's rise to riches as the mistress of a wealthy man which marked the beginning of the naturalist movement in America. Series: Penguin Modern Classics. Num Pages: 528 pages. BIC Classification: FA; FC. Category: (G) General (US: Trade). Dimension: 199 x 147 x 25. Weight in Grams: 394.
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.

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