"Sister Carrie" is one of the important works of the American realist writer Dreiser, and is the companion piece to "Girl Jane". "Sister Carrie" describes the story of a rural girl Carrie who came to the big city of Chicago to find happiness. In order to escape poverty, she sold her virginity and lived with a salesman and a hotel manager successively. Later, she became a singer with her beauty and singing voice. With Carrie as the representative, the writer profoundly exposed the cruelty of the American capitalist system's oppression of poor people and the corrosiveness of the bourgeois lifestyle on petty bourgeois elements.
