Detalles del libro
Sinclair Lewis's wonderful demolition of the venal and pusillanimous nature of commercial America, Babbitt ? Scotland on Sunday
A satirical masterpiece ? Sunday Times
One of the century's most perceptive writers on working life ? Observer
His view of America was mordant, yet it was also unexpectedly loving; there is a tenderness in all three of these books that catches the reader unawares, and imbues them with a humanity that makes their satire all the more penetrating. ? Washington Post
Biografía del autor
Sinclair Lewis was an American playwright and novelist. Born in 1885, he received his bachelor's degree from Yale University in 1908 and published his first novel, Hike and the Aeroplane, in 1912. He published Babbitt, perhaps his most fanous work, in 1922 and in 1926 he was awarded the Pulitzer Prize for his novel Arrowsmith but rejected it. In 1930 he was the first American to be awarded the Nobel Prize for Literature. He died in Rome, in 1951, and his last novel World So Wide was published posthumously.
