Sister Carrie 2

Even though Sister Carrie goes through hard times, she eventually finds fame and fortune in the end. However, even with her material success she still feels like she is missing something. The characters in this book are all so greedy, I can't tell if what they feel for one another is real, or if they just need to possess something. Sister Carrie spends the entire book wanting more material things than what she has, so she doesn't even seem to notice what she is really missing. She has two men in her life, and she seems to care a little for each of them, but she doesn't care enough for them to be content with just them. Also, they care for her, but they see her more as a possession. I think at one point both men have some feelings for her, but none of them are real. I feel like they only want her out of greed.
