Blah

I finished reading Sister Carrie yesterday night. It was tedious at times, but overall, very good. I couldn't help but feel sorry for Hurstwood by the end of it, even if he was an unlikeable character (no one in this book is likeable). That was definitely one of the most striking downfalls I've ever read before. I thought about watching the 1952 film adaptation but I read it isn't true to the story so...no thanks. You can't leave out THAT ending, although it's obvious why they did, being the 1950s and all. I already downloaded An American Tragedy, also by Dreiser, so I'll probably read that next, if I don't start something else first.
