After a poor and difficult childhood, Dreiser broke into newspaper work in Chicago in 1892. A successful career as a magazine writer in New York during the late 1890s was followed by his first novel, \u003cb\u003eSister Carrie\u003c\/b\u003e (1900). When this work made little impact, Dreiser published no fiction until \u003cb\u003eJennie Gerhardt\u003c\/b\u003e in 1911. There then followed a decade and a half of major work in a number of literary forms, which was capped in 1925 by \u003cb\u003eAn American Tragedy\u003c\/b\u003e, a novel that brought him universal acclaim. Dreiser was increasingly preoccupied by philosophical and political issues during the last two decades of his life. He died in Los Angeles on December 28, 1945.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Signet Book","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48942042644633,"sku":"9780451531148","price":6.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0572\/3367\/0297\/files\/9780451531148.jpg?v=1787865205","url":"https:\/\/bookmarksretail.store\/products\/sister-carrie-9780451531148","provider":"Bookmarks Retail","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
