  The "American Dream" originated in the early history of the United States. After the victory of the War of Independence, Americans got rid of colonial rule, which greatly enhanced their national pride. They believe that in a free and democratic country like the United States, everyone has equal opportunities. As long as they work honestly, everyone has the hope of success and can realize their dreams, including the material "dream of wealth" and the spiritual "dream of love". For many years, the "American Dream" has been one of the popular themes for writers to write about. In the mid-19th century, successful series of novels appeared in the United States. In the middle and late 19th century, American romantic literature continued to extol the "American dream" with great pride. After the 20th century, with the frequent occurrence of hard pursuit and disillusionment stories of the "American Dream" in real life, the theme of the broken "American Dream" began to be reflected in literary works, such as The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn by Mark Twain and Martin Eden by Jack London. Sister Carrie is also a novel with the theme of American Dream. Carrie's pursuit of a higher level of "civilization and wealth" was greater than anything, so she showed a great degree of selfishness. She abandoned these two men who had brought her happiness and never missed her relatives after she was satisfied. She has been, and only has been, immersed in the American dream.
