关于此电子书
In Theodore Dreiser's novel 'Sister Carrie,' readers are taken on a journey through the trials and tribulations of a young woman's pursuit of success and fulfillment in the bustling city of Chicago during the late 19th century. Dreiser's naturalistic writing style, characterized by its focus on the raw and unvarnished reality of urban life, provides a stark and honest portrayal of Carrie's struggle for self-actualization amidst societal constraints and personal desires. The novel's exploration of class dynamics, gender roles, and the allure of materialism offers readers a glimpse into the complexities of the American dream and the sacrifices it often demands.
作者简介
Theodore Dreiser (1871–1945) stands as one of the preeminent American novelists and social commentators of the early 20th century. His novel 'Sister Carrie' (1900), which is often referenced as a seminal work in the naturalist genre, broke new ground by offering a narrative that unflinchingly addressed the gritty realities of urban life and the pursuit of the American Dream from a determinist perspective. Dreiser's portrayal of his protagonist, Carrie Meeber, reflected the socio-economic forces that shape individuals' lives, reflecting his belief that social conditions, heredity, and environment were the predominant forces in shaping human behavior. His literary style is characterized by a keen observation of detail, an unembellished prose, and a focus on the moral ambiguities of the human experience. Dreiser's other notable works include 'Jennie Gerhardt' (1911), 'The Financier' (1912), 'The Titan' (1914), and 'An American Tragedy' (1925), the latter of which cemented his reputation as a critical and profound chronicler of American life. 'An American Tragedy' explores the dark undercurrents of ambition and the devastating consequences of social inequities, further illustrating Dreiser's profound impact on the American literary canon and his advocacy for social reform through his written works.
