中文名:
嘉莉妹妹
作者:
西奥多·德莱塞 Theodore Dreiser

嘉莉妹妹(Sister Carrie)简介:

`When a girl leaves her home at eighteen, she does one of two things. Either she falls into saving hands and becomes better, or she rapidly assumes the cosmopolitan standard of virtue and becomes worse.’

The tale of Carrie Meeber’s rise to stardom in the theatre and George Hurstwood’s slow decline captures the twin poles of exuberance and exhaustion in modern city life as never before. The premier example of American naturalism, Dreiser’s remarkable first novel has deeply influenced such key writers as William Faulkner, F. Scott Fitzgerald, Saul Bellow, and Joyce Carol Oates. This edition uses the 1900 text, which is regarded as the author’s final version.


小说描写了农村姑娘嘉莉来到大城市芝加哥寻找幸福,为摆脱贫困,出卖自己的贞操,后又凭美貌与歌喉成为歌星的故事。作家娴熟地运用自然主义的创作手法,使作品具有极强的社会表现力。小说的故事真正情节是这样的:嘉莉是个俊俏的农村姑娘,她羡慕大都市的物质生活来到了芝加哥谋生。严酷的现实破碎了她的美梦,迎接她的是失业和疾病。在走投无路时,她做了推销员杜洛埃的情妇,后来由于更大的欲望又做了酒店经理赫斯渥的情妇。与赫斯渥私奔后,在纽约由于偶然的机会她成了走红一时的演员,挤上了上流社会,实现了她的幻想。
