Sister Carrie : The Pennsylvania Edition, Paperback / softback Book

Sister Carrie : The Pennsylvania Edition Paperback / softback

Edited by III, James L. W. West

Part of the The University of Pennsylvania Dreiser Edition series

Paperback / softback

Description

The Sister Carrie edition that was published in 1900, long regarded as a watershed work in American fiction, was actually a censored misrepresentation of Drieser's original story.

When, 80 years later, the Pennsylvania Edition first appeared, replete with scholarly apparatus, it was hailed from coast to coast as a literary event of major importance.

The Pennsylvania Edition restored the 36,000 words that had been excised at the insistence of the author's wife, his publisher, and a friend. This edition contains the complete, unexpurgated text, without the scholarly apparatus, plus a new introductory essay by Thomas P.

Riggio.
