About this Item
Modern Library Edition by Random House, 1932-with a new forward by the author- as stated in a Publisher's Note in the Forward: ".Mr Dreiser, however, very reasonably kept one eye cocked on the royalty statements covering the two-fifty edition. and it was only in February, 1932, after more attempts than we care to think about, that we persuaded him to let us do the book." Thus 3rd Edition and 1st Printing. 557 pps with another 8 pages at the end of all the Modern Library Classics. Grey boards with some wearing along the top and bottom of the spine. Prior owner's signature in pen on fly paper.Spine slightly darkened . Though many would not think of Theodore Dreiser as an advocate for women's rights, his first book, SISTER CARRIE, was enlightening in its portrayal of a young single woman's struggle to survive in a post-Victorian urban environment. His work shortly after as editor-in-chief of the magazine THE DELINEATOR provided further evidence for Dreiser's concern for women's struggle to survive in early 20th century American society.
