Babbitt - Sinclair Lewis

Babbitt by Sinclair Lewis

The word “Babbitt” has always been a byword for soul-less conformity, however, the novel is both a satire and a tragedy.

George F. Babbitt is middle-aged and middle-class. He lives in a medium-sized home in a medium-sized city in the Middle West. He's a middleman--he sells real estate.

Sound like anyone you know? But "Babbitt" was published—almost unbelievably—in 1922. If you expect to be transported back to a different era. Be prepared, this could be today! Funny how little some things have changed. Lewis's satire on suburban life and its conformities was an instant hit. Even today, we know what a Babbitt is—a guy who's all show and no go--whose lifestyle and opinions have been furnished for him but maybe whose soul is a little out of whack.

Sinclair Lewis is one of the "great" writers of all time. Every paragraph, every sentence, every apostrophe is precise and distilled with an exact resonance. Like all great books, this one moves on the surface and also deep underneath.
