The first in a "trilogy of desire", The Financier tells the story of the ruthlessly dominating broker Frank Cowperwood as he climbs the ladder of success, his adoring mistress championing his every move. Based on the life of flamboyant finance captain C. T. Yerkes, Theodore Dreiser's cutting portrayal of the unscrupulous magnate Cowperwood embodies the idea that behind every great fortune there is a crime.

Story20
Sister Carrie is an epic of urban life, the story of an innocent heroine adrift in an indifferent city. When small-town girl Carrie Meeber sets out for Chicago, she is equipped with nothing but a few dollars, a certain unspoiled beauty and charm, and a pitiful lack of preparation for the complex moral choices she will face. Her story is one of struggle, from sweatshop to stage success, and of the love she inspires in a married man twice her age, whose obsession with her threatens to destroy him.

Det viser sig at være svært at tjene til dagen og vejen - og endnu sværere at få en arbejdsplads - når man ingenting kan. Og stemningen i lejlighedens små rum bliver efterhånden ubærlig for hende at være i. Hun forsøger at lette humøret ved at tage i teateret. Her støder hun tilfældigt ind i Drouet, som hun også talte med i toget på vej til storbyen.
