Sinopsis

Sister Carrie is a novel by Theodore Dreiser, first published in 1900. It centers on eighteen-year-old Caroline Meeber, who leaves small-town Wisconsin for Chicago in search of a better life. In the fast pace of the city, she draws close to two men: a charming salesman and a married bar manager. Along the way, Caroline discovers and develops an ability for acting, a skill that helps shape her movement toward public recognition. The story examines ambition, desire, and the complex pursuit of the American Dream in an urban setting, while highlighting how the choices people make can lead them down very different paths.
