Theodore Dreiser

Sister Carrie: A novel

Hardcover (Boni & Liveright Aug. 16, 1917) , 2ND edition
The story of the vicissitudes attendant upon the publisher's suppression , in 1901, of Sister Carrie is the history of America's emergence from the fog of suspicion and fear of realism in the novel. On the score of his uncompromising fight, Dreiser must be regarded a pioneer and liberator. Sister Carrie pointed the tendency in American fiction for 25 years, and today it remains a monumental achievement, embodying all the sympathy, tenderness and unremittingnaturalness for which its author has grown internatinally famous.
