Publisher Description: Babbitt was Sinclair Lewis' followup to Main Street, and in this novel, Lewis turns his attention to the hypocrisies and pretentions of the upwardly mobile middle class businessman. Yet, for all his conformism, for all the follies that Lewis is only too eager to point out, the main character, real estate man George Babbitt, is not the one-dimensional caricature that he first appears to be. Frequently sardonic, but ultimately sympathetic, Lewis delivers a portrait that is more than mere stereotype. |
