  3. Coming to terms with the reality of our city

    In Theodore Dreiser's "Sister Carrie," a prosperous Chicago businessman, George Hurstwood, takes up with the young, gorgeous Carrie Meeber, chucks family and home, and runs away with Carrie to Montreal. They find their way to New York, where their tales separate and their fortunes move in radically different directions. Carrie becomes a successful stage performer and social diva. George is reduced to driving a streetcar, and ultimately, alone in a flophouse, commits suicide.

    <span style="font-size: small;">After the Boston Marathon bombings, Mayor Emanuel extolled the value of video surveillance cameras and <a href="http://chicago.cbslocal.com/2013/04/17/emanuel-stresses-value-of-surviellance-cameras-in-probe-of-boston-bombings/">promised to keep adding them in Chicago</a>, which already has the nation's most extensive network.
