    The satirical novel, Babbitt (1922), by Sinclair Lewis, is a critique of the social pressure toward conformity and what Lewis regarded as the emptiness of middle-class life. The setting is the city of Zenith in the Midwest. The book’s first seven chapters describe a day in the life of a realtor, George F. Babbitt, starting with his morning routine. In time, Babbitt rebels against all of the norms he formerly held dear: He immerses himself in politics; conducts an extramarital affair; goes on various vacations; and cavorts around Zenith with a crowd of flappers and Bohemians. Each effort, however, ends in disillusionment as he learns that the Bohemian subculture has rigid standards, too. In the end, due to his wife’s illness, George settles back into his previous way of living but he accepts the different lifestyle choice that his son makes. ungekürzt. Language: English.

    With his breathtaking social insight and his graceful sentences, Sinclair Lewis—a Pulitzer and Nobel Prize winner—stands out as one of the most important American writers of the 20th century. At turns lyrically soul-searching and scathing in its honesty, Babbitt captures the essence of the 1920s while remaining a timeless piece of literature. Babbitt, the ultimate conformist and social climber, seeks power in his community and self-esteem from others. Outwardly, he is the ultimate “big booster,” and he toes the company line with “zip and zowie.” In his dreams, however, he is tormented by the emptiness of his soul. ungekürzt. Language: English.
